April Gornik (1953-present) is a well-known American fine artist recognized for her landscape paintings, drawings and prints of the sea, lakes, fields, rain and storms. Her pieces are rooted in observed and remembered reality, from which she synthesizes and transforms into dreamlike, psychological spaces.

Gornik lives and works in Long Island, NY and holds a B.F.A. from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (1976). Her work has been widely exhibited, and in 2014 she was honored with a mid-career retrospective organized by the Neuberger Museum of Art, SUNY, Purchase, NY which traveled to the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, Halifax and the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, Lincoln, NE. Her work can be seen in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Smithsonian National Museum of American Art, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, among other major institutions. She is represented by the Danese/Corey gallery in New York.
