Sylvia began painting when she was only 12 years old. She was born in New Orleans, LA. She is self but in later
years she received instruction at the University of New Mexico. She has paintings in collections all over the world,
most notably in the collection of James H. Russell of Sante Fe, New Mexico; Art Patron Sarah Gillespie of
Hattiesburg, Ms; Dr. Michael Sullivan of New Orleans, LA; Attorney L. C. James of Richland, MS; Andre Laguillon Of
La Rochelle, France and Jacques Chavier of La Rochelle, France.
Sylvia always donates to the WYES Auction in New Orleans and last year she had her own gallery board which
generated an impressive amount for the auction.
She is part owner in Lott Stanton Gallery, 1800 N. State St., Jackson, MS. She also has a featured salon at Maggie
May's Serenity Gallery in Bay St. Louis, MS. She also shows at the Montserrat Gallery in New York.
Sylvia is a member of numerous art related organizations, including Allied Artists of America (New York); Audubon
Art Association (New York); Biloxi Art Association; Pearl River Art League and New Orleans Art Association. Her
paintings have garnered numerous Best of Show and blue ribbons.
Stanton paints in oil and uses only the finest materials, Di Vinci paints and stretched canvas. She enjoys painting
France and England. She also did a series of cities of the world. You will see many of these scenes in her work. She
also enjoys painting gardens, flowers (in the style of Georgia O' Keefe), potting sheds, antique and quaint shops,
interiors, fairs, the Vieux Carre, beaches and seascapes. She also paints one red dress per year. It is always sold
before she paints it. There is a waiting list and she doesn't know what she will paint until she sits down.
When Stanton exhibited at The Montserrat Gallery on Broadway in New York, the art critic of "Gallery and Studio
Magazine" Peter Wylie, compared her work to impressionist Pierre Bonnard. He said it was in the French Tradition
and was gaily energetic and had intimate charm.
