About The Artist

Lori Stanford’s creative journey began during childhood when building treehouses and making art were her favorite pass times. In college, she pursued an engineering degree and then went on to become a medical doctor. At a point about fifteen years ago, she put her career as a physician on hold and stayed home to raise her three kids. In the process, she rediscovered painting and over the last five years has been showing her work publicly. Stanford has had a solo show about Racism in America, been part of many group exhibitions throughout California, and has been published in several art books. She is driven to create art that promotes social awareness and donates proceeds of her art sales to local non-profit organizations serving Los Angeles. She is a member of the Los Angeles Artist Association, The South Bay Artist Collective, and the Artist Alliance. She is represented by Agora Gallery in New York City, Galeria Azur in Miami, and exhibits in various galleries within Los Angeles. Stanford resides in Los Angeles and works out of her home studio.
