Paula Jenkins : Where The Wild Rivers Run

Paula Jenkins is a contemporary landscape artist based in Walcha on the Northern Tablelands of NSW. Her expressive paintings are characterised by nuanced colour and gestural mark-making, moving between representation and abstraction. With a background in environmental studies, the natural environment has remained central to her practice. Immersion in diverse terrains and environments is integral to her process, providing both the subject matter and impetus for her work.

Paula has held numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout Australia, including solo exhibitions at Maitland Regional Art Gallery, New England Regional Art Museum and Tamworth Regional Gallery, and has been selected as a finalist in numerous art prizes. Her work is held in private and public collections in Australia and internationally, including the University of New England and the State Library of NSW.
