BIOGRAPHY
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.

STATEMENT
I am a Los Angeles-based artist exploring human identity through my abstract, figurative oil painting. Bold, saturated colors and organic shapes help me express my thoughts about humanity, the evolution of self, and how self relates to other. My work, informed by what I read and experience, is driven by intuition and the subconscious.
