Jenna Waldren

Jenna Waldren is a figurative artist based in North London. She graduated from the BA (Hons) Painting programme at the University of Edinburgh with a First-Class Honours in 2021. Since then, she has been awarded the BTA Rising Star Award, reached the semi-finals of Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year 2024, and was shortlisted for the Husketh Hubbard Bursary. She has also been longlisted for the Scottish Portrait Award 2023 and was the Winner of the London First Prize Arts Depot Open 2018.

Jenna exhibits regularly in both London and Edinburgh. Notable exhibitions include the Chelsea Art Society 75th Annual Exhibition, the Society of Scottish Artists 130th Annual Exhibition at the Royal Scottish Academy, and her solo show The Art of Living at the Cass Art Space in Islington. 

Her work observes her immediate surroundings, documenting glimmers from her daily life. Using drawing, painting and printmaking in a careful and tender manner, her work experiments with the balance of the graphic versus the painterly, juxtaposing bold lines against delicate, detailed areas of focus.
