Photos of Eva Slater & her family in the 1960's



These are some photos of Eva Slater and her family taken in 1961. Her husband John Slater was an inventor and Chief Scientist at Autonetics. He loved art and painted himself (desert landscapes), plus he made exotic musical instruments such as the Egyptian harp shown above. The photos were all taken in the main studio of the house where Eva worked, which was a large A frame structure with a huge window which overlooked Orange County. The bottom photo shows John and Eva with their two children, Dan and Miriam.

Eva's paintings in the Three Viewpoints exhibit in Santa Barbara


Eva Slater was in this "Three Viewpoints" exhibit with Harry Carmean and daughter Miriam Slater in Santa Barbara. All three artists work in completely different styles, Eva works in the Hard-edge manner, Miriam in a Japanese style and Harry works in a classic European style, however the underlying aesthetic principles used by these artists is the same and so there are just as many similarities as there are differences.
