Jeanette Pasin Sloan (born 1946) is an American visual artist known for her photorealist prints, paintings and drawings.[2]

Education, and early career[edit]

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]

Collections[edit]

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]
