18+
Years in Practice
Based in Glen Flora, Wisconsin with a BFA from the University of Florida (2007) and an AA from Miami Dade College (2005), April has spent 18+ years building a practice rooted in observation, craft, and collaboration.
Whether it's a pet portrait that captures spirit, a botanical study painted from life, or a large-scale statement piece — every commission begins with listening and ends with something irreplaceable.
“The best commissions feel like collaborations. I want to paint what's already in your mind.”
— April Johnson
“She captured my dog's spirit perfectly. I've looked at this painting every day for six months and still find new details.”
