Hopson finished at California University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor's degree in the Fine Arts. Judy has been a dedicated student with a 3.8 GPA (Grade Point average) She has carried out numerous demonstrations and exhibitions of her talents and work. Pottery is her newest love in the art world. But do not be fooled by this title as she will quickly tell you that she is just an artist. Hopson excels at a variety of mediums as you will see in her gallery. Hopson opened her businessin 2003 where she plans to learn more in what is needed in the business end of art. She readily admits that it is not her strong suit as she would rather be doing the art and leave the business end to her best friend and agent Bill Faust.
