Kevin Sloan

Kevin Sloan is a Denver based painter working primarily with acrylic on canvas and occasionally drawings and paintings on paper and recently, ceramic sculpture. Growing up in Des Moines, Iowa his early interest in art was nurtured by student classes at the Des Moines Art Center. It was clear upon high school graduation he would continue to study art in college.  
He received a BFA in Painting from Tyler School of Art where he studied with Stephen Greene and Stanley Whitney. He continued his formal education at the University of Arizona studying with James G. Davis, where he received an MFA in Painting.

Kevin Sloan is very interested in what it means to be a painter of the natural world in a time of such extraordinary change environmentally, politically and socially. 
He is known for his imaginative, adventurous and detailed universe. Kevin Sloan explores the poetic dimensions of nature using a representational, scientific style. Subtly allegorical, his work probes the relationship between humans, animals, and nature in the contemporary world.
