Elizabeth King Stanton
Biography
"I became a mom three years ago. I am energized and exhausted by the newness of motherhood. I now find comfort in the predictability of daily activities that I previously found mundane or didn't think about at all."
"The dependability of a to-do list anchors my days with my daughter, providing much needed structure and entertainment. My recent paintings are somewhat humorous tableaus of mothers and daughters frozen mid chore. These paintings are visually delicate, yet dense. Often filled to the brim with pattern, the thin surfaces are touched many times, until every dab of paint is held taut in its place. The vibrant colors and playful imagery pay homage to a typical day of toddlerhood."
Elizabeth Stanton is a painter living with her husband and daughter in New Bedford, MA. She studied painting at Rhode Island School of Design (MFA 2017) and Boston University (BFA 2011). Stanton's work has been included in group exhibitions at Abigail Ogilvy Gallery, the New Bedford Art Museum, Able Baker Contemporary, 315 Gallery, Saatchi Gallery London, Field Projects, and the Danforth Museum of Art, among others. Her paintings have been featured in Boston Home Magazine, Art Maze Magazine and New American Paintings. Stanton has been awarded artist residencies at Gallery Oak, The Umbrella Community Arts Center and ChaNorth. Her work is in the permanent collection of Fidelity Investments.
