Painting during the summer in her Wainscott, New York studio with an unblocked view of the sky Slavin's work records the great powers of nature. Whether highly dramatic or absolutely still, these skies are filtered through her abstract sensibility. Color enhances the mood of these paintings.

Granulated pigment is suspended in many layers of thin colored stains, a technique Slavin has developed to convey her personal vision of the last 30 years. Throughout the colder months in her New York City studio her work continues to evolve.
Stepping back to provide a luminist view of the horizon, Slavin continues her exploration of the interaction between painting and the natural world.
Slavin's work filters the landscape through her engagement with craft of painting spills, splatters, pours, washes, and drips capture a poetic naturalism in a light-infused magical atmosphere.
