Robert A. Sloan, 53, is a disabled writer and artist who lives with his daughter's family and his faithful Siamese cat. He teaches drawing, colored pencil realism, watercolor painting, oils, acrylics and pastels, and colored Conte crayons.

ACEO miniature artworks, OSWOA artworks, and larger works in graphite pencil, colored pencil, watercolor, pen and ink, acrylics, oils, pastels and colored Conte crayons. His subjects include portraits, landscapes, fantasy art, florals, birds, animals, cats, Asian style brush pen drawings, mythological creatures and anything beautiful, ranging from soft muted colors to brilliant tropical flowers and birds, all with a natural realism and great attention to detail. Watch for new original art in new mediums like scratchboard. Nature is my favorite subject.

Paypal is preferred! I will accept checks, but must delay shipping until the check clears at my bank.

USPS Priority Mail is my preferred shipping method, no art has ever been damaged when I sent it by Priority Mail in their hard mailers. Shipping outside the continental USA will be at cost by arrangement with buyer.

No returns except under special circumstances, discuss by email.

Email will be given to buyer at the time you buy my art, I understand that's how it's done here. However, you can find my Gallery at http://robertsloan2.deviantart.com with images of all the art I've done since 2004. I will be accepting commissions for ACEO and OSWOA pieces or pastel artworks on a first come, first served basis. See my DeviantART gallery for details, and note me on deviantART dot com for my email if you're interested in a commission. Describe your project in detail. If the no-HTML on this field messed up, my Gallery is at: (the usual h t t p : / / header) robertsloan2 dot deviantART dot com, you can type it in from that. :) Also, if you are a member of the LiveJournal community, I am also robertsloan2 at LiveJournal, http://robertsloan2.livejournal.com and post a daily art work now on my blog.

My blog at LiveJournal is http://robertsloan2.livejournal.com and I have been posting a new artwork each day there, so to see my latest, watch me on LJ or get the RSS feed. Sometimes they're just sketches or progress on larger more serious works, but very often it's a new ACEO like today's Mermaid ink and watercolor ACEO.
