This week’s Prison Art Series #2 Artist is Jerome Sloan
Jerome is incarcerated at Snake River Correctional institution in Ontario. where he is serving a life sentence with no possibility of parole. He is only 36 years old.
Jerome Sloan was one of 48 artists from the 13 Western States chosen for inclusion in the Coos Art Museum’s EXPRESSIONS WEST show for 2012.

WE are all as bad as the worst and as good as the best of us.
We are one.
