Welcome!

Hi! I’m April - an artist, illustrator, and the enchanting force behind the world of April Gloom. My brand specializes in whimsically macabre art, catering to those with a penchant for adorably eerie creations. My other influences include folklore, haunted spaces, and the nature found around my home in the Pacific Northwest.

As a graduate from the University of Washington with a BA in Interdisciplinary Art my career has spanned many creative art forms. From metalsmithing and ceramics to illustration and mixed media art - they all continue to challenge me and let me express myself in different ways. Besides my work with April Gloom my career has included designing my own fine jewelry line and being an art educator.

Beyond my artistic pursuits, I have been a card reader for over 30 years. My expertise spans various divination systems, including tarot, Lenormand, and oracle cards. This rich background in card reading informs my art and also serves as a core element in my creative process.

Originally from the East Coast, I now make my home in the Seattle metro area, where I live with my family and continue to cultivate a space where creativity and mysticism intertwine.
