My medium is a varied mix of tiny shells, scraps of paper, slivers of glass, thick gel mediums, crusted gouache additives, creamy acrylic and globs of oil paints, traces of watercolor and melted wax crayons combined with hardened enamels and carefully chosen 14kt gold flake.
Every piece is original and every creation is an unpredictable surprise! I create with a clear heart, no expectations. The materials combined together create a resist-like reaction and the results are different every time…..each piece is genuinely unique and original!

From the very first time I melted glass, I fell in love with the exquisite colors and exciting chemistry that make it so fun to work with glass. I create unique lampwork glass beads – no two of them are ever exactly the same – and incorporate those beads into my own jewelry designs. My style is rustic and organic and a little bit Boho.

The objects and natural elements that surround us each day connect us to our lives and the people we share them with. My work is an ongoing exploration of my fascination with our ever-changing skies, the native plants and landscape below them, and still life that shows how we experience these natural elements on a more intimate level by incorporating them into our private spaces. I paint in oil using a mixture of application materials including synthetic and hog hair brushes, dry rags, and a range of palette knives.
At a time in my life when I desperately needed to be saved—the single, simple act of picking up a paintbrush saved me. I now see life through the constantly changing combination of colors that I paint. Even the smallest emotion is magnified in the fusion of colors— vibrant and delicate alike. So I want to make original art accessible to everyone in hopes that others are inspired to search for the same kind of serenity and satisfaction that painting has brought to my soul. www.aprilstrahanart.com@aprilstrahanfacebook.com/aprilstrahanart

Multimedia 2D and 3D abstract constructions. “Reconstruction” is a word I’ve used to describe my style. As a child I was always taking things apart and rearranging them to suit my sensibility.” My education in architecture and furniture design come through in my art.
I think I was in 4th grade when someone told me I had something with colors. But it took me quite some time before I really started painting, first I was painting in an impressionist style, just because I fell in love with the colors of Provence. But my real love is abstract painting … there is so much creativity involved. It’s all about colors, balance, energy …
