Mallica Reynolds, OD (1911 - 1989), better known by the adopted name "Kapo", was a Jamaican artist and religious leader. Considered one of the greatest artists in Jamaica's "Intuitives" artistic movement, Kapo's religious beliefs were reflected in his work. His works have been exhibited internationally, including six exhibitions in the United States between 1953 and 1982.
Roberta Flack, an American musician, was one of Kapo's patrons, and his portrait of her is in the American Folk Art Museum. Another one of his paintings, "Shining the Spring", was selected by the Jamaican government as a wedding gift for the 1981 wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana.
