A prodigious talent awarded both the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Award and the Bulldog Bursary, Emma Hopkins is now a member of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters and at the forefront of contemporary portrait painting. Vital and transformative, her work tackles our core functioning and lays it bare with inexorable honesty. By melding the subject’s anatomical and psychological existence with her own, she preserves life, divining strength from fragility and beauty from darkness; the result - a timeless rendering of shared experience.
