Education, and early career

Sloan was born in Chicago in 1946, the daughter of immigrants to the United States.[3] She received her bachelors 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]

Recent career

Sloan's work is in the collections of several major art museums and galleries, including in Palm Springs,[1] the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution,[5] the Art Institute of Chicago,[2] and several other museums in the Midwestern United States.[6] Her work is also in many private collections.[7]

Sloan designed bottle labels for Imagery Wines twice.[8] She received a commission in 2011 from the Print Club of Albany.[9]
