Jenny Martin

Jenny Martin RSW is an artist working in painting and printmaking. She lives in Edinburgh, in an area called Portobello, and works from her garden studio in her beachfront house.

She is an elected member of the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour (RSW) and as well as making her own work, she teaches on a Foundation Course in Edinburgh at Leith School of Art.

‘I am inspired by people and the things they make, the traces they leave and the things they value. I love colour and pattern, and this features heavily in my work.

I want to create art which is both beautiful and intriguing, but also makes the viewer aware of a deeper significance below the surface.’
