Joan Hoffmann's Bio:
I'm a native Californian and in the early 1960's, I began backpacking and outdoor painting. I have been an advocate and activist for wilderness. I through-hiked five hundred miles of the Colorado Trail in 1999 for my fiftieth birthday. In 2000, I walked across California from Pt Reyes to Squaw Valley-the Discovery Trail, painting habitats. I rafted and painted two hundred forty miles on the Colorado River, Grand Canyon, 2006, 2009. I lecture on History of American Landscape Painting, National Parks and Public Lands. I celebrated with an art show in Steamboat Springs, CO, “Forty years Painting Routt County.”
