“The world around me is like music to my eyes, and when music inspires my soul, I dance.”

April Quast's Art dances on canvas...

choreographing color and energy to revitalize the spaces you live in.

 Own Different

Imagine every very small detail that surrounds you is a note to a song...

Each little intricacy, a composition of time, movement, celebration and energy dancing together on canvas.

Each little detail contributing its own note.



This art moves because it is a collections of the sights, sounds, flavors and even stories that surround us.

This art is music, it is a note in the composition that choreographs life's most treasured moments.

When you hear music, what better way to celebrate than to Dance?

Artist Statement

The story Behind the Art

I See The Music

The world around me is like music to my eyes, and when music inspires my soul, I dance! I use my art, my movements and my wild imagination to inspire new perspectives and a growing connection to my truest self and the surrounding world. 

I Dance On Canvas.

Dance is about expression and soul; it is about moving as a reaction to how my senses respond to the music and my emotions.  I create colorful abstract art because the world around me is beautiful, every detail offers a musical energy, that demands my reply. This is how I Trust Different.

I Trust Different.

Trusting different is about trusting the difference in yourself. This crazy art is about overcoming doubt and boldly showing the world my vibrant perspective of its details.
