Jenna Pickering, a 26-year-old Pilbara artist, is turning discarded metal and wood into breathtaking portraits, using found materials to honor local subjects—now with over 100K followers and a spot as a finalist in ABC’s Portrait Artist of the Year. Just three months ago, she quit her job to chase her art full-time, embracing the grit of uneven surfaces for the soulful, sustainable results her audience adores. Her work shines at the Cossack Art Awards, Australia’s richest regional prize with a $97K pool and 300+ artworks displayed in historic stone buildings—where over 80 pieces sold in three days, cementing the Pilbara’s rise as a creative powerhouse. The exhibition runs until August 9.
