A textile artist and photographer, April is inspired by the colors of nature and finds pleasure translating organic patterns into functional beauty to feed the human spirit and delight our living spaces. Felting fine marino wool and embellishing silk fibers, she creates one-of-a-kind hats and rugs. From Texas to NYC to the “bush” of Alaska, her “chakras crowns,” are frequently purchased as the last thread is clipped. Born and raised in Texas, April currently splits her time between Buda, Texas, and Chitina, Alaska-where she runs Spirit Mountain Artworks, a gallery of fine art and quality craft inspired by Alaskan landscape.
