Jeanette Pasin Sloan (born 1946) is an American visual artist known for her photorealist prints, paintings and drawings. [2]
Sloan was born in Chicago in 1946, the daughter of immigrants to the United States. [3] She received her bachelor's degree from Marymount College and her MFA from University of Chicago, [4] in art history. [3]
She began her art career with paintings, after she gained her MFA, and while she was a "young mom in the western suburbs" of Chicago. [3] As a young mother in the 1970s, with two small children, she would paint in her kitchen, after putting her children to sleep for the evening. [3] Her oeuvre took a significant turn when she noticed a reflection in a toaster that she was painting. [3]
A catalogue raisonné of her print works was released in 2002. [5]
Sloan's work is in the collections of the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution, [6] the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art, [7] the Metropolitan Museum of Art, [8] the Cleveland Museum of Art [9] and the Art Institute of Chicago. [10]
