Richard Sloan (1935?2007) was an American artist. He painted wildlife in Arizona and in rainforests. Considered to be North America's "Dean Of Rainforest Painters", Sloan was born in Chicago, Illinois, where he attended the America Academy Of Art. He then worked as an advertising illustrator before joining Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo as staff artist. After a 1966 sellout solo exhibition at the Abercrombie Fitch Gallery in Chicago, Sloan left Lincoln Park to embark upon a lifetime of capturing the world's rainforests in paint. He was the first wildlife artist in North America to turn all his efforts as a painter to documenting exotic animals of the world's tropics. His skills in documenting not only the animals but the details in their environments have made Richard Sloan's prints highly sought after.
