| Joan Hopkins is co-owner of Golden Cod Gallery in Wellfleet, MA. She is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design. The figure in the landscape, as well as in the still life, has been prominent in her work. Throughout her career she has often worked on a large scale, painting expressive landscapes based on many different places: Cape Cod dunes and marshes, Western Massachusetts farmland, Scottish mountains, and Florida wetlands. It wasn’t until she first returned to Jamaica in 1980 that she began painting specifically Caribbean themes, starting with large images based on memories of her grandmother’s garden at Blue Mountain. Rather than providing a simple tourist point of view, her paintings describe intimately familiar, material qualities of daily life in the tropics. |
