Paul Sloggett RCA (born August 7, 1950) is a Canadian abstract painter known for his use of geometric shapes and patterns in creating paintings and for his many teaching and administrative appointments at OCAD University, Toronto, where he served as a full professor since 2001 and as Assistant Dean of the Faculty of Art.
In 2016, he was invited to exhibit New Paintings in 2016 in the University of Ontario Institute of Technology's Regent Theatre in Oshawa at the reception for a screening of the video Water Colour.

Burton hired for the department painters such as Graham Coughtry and Gordon Rayner that were Sloggett's teachers.
Upon graduation, he was awarded an OCAD Teaching Assistantship Scholarship to work under the direction of Royden Rabinowitch, chair of Experimental Art (1974).
