"Sol" Painting

Hi, I'm April Paige — the artist behind the work. Originally from Sarasota, Florida, I come from two vibrant cultures — Cuban and Spanish — that continue to inspire my art and design. After spending most of my life in the Sarasota/Tampa area, I relocated to Raleigh, North Carolina in December 2019. Now, in 2025, I’m excited to re-launch my fine art business with a fresh perspective and expanded offerings. Through this new chapter, you’ll find original artwork, the option to commission pieces inspired by past works, and a curated collection of my most popular prints in a variety of sizes. I’ve also introduced a new online interior design store featuring one-of-a-kind, artful home decor. Whether you're an interior designer, decorator, art enthusiast, or simply looking to bring meaningful beauty into your home — you've come to the right place!

I briefly studied art at the Ringling School of Art, studied privately through various courses, painted in conjunction with other established artists and have developed many self taught techniques. My love of art began the moment I was given a crayon as a child.  I spent many years exploring my creativity before becoming an artist and was recognized and honored for many contests while in school.  I assisted one of my Ringling art professors in creating wall murals outside of art school and then developed my own style of fine art which is still transforming today. 

I am an avid music lover and try hard to capture that moment of creativity, grit  or soul expression of whatever subject I am painting.  Right now, I am exploring a more monochromatic style that I came to enjoy from painting along side a tatoo artist who has become a fine artist.  I am very excited to create a new series that reminds me of my Ybor City heritage, my Latin heritage and my love of Latin music.  I am looking forward to capturing some of the people and things that have helped to build me personally.
