Lucy May Stanton created works in oil, pastel, and watercolor, and she is best known as a painter of portrait miniatures in watercolor on ivory. Her mature style in miniature painting is distinguished by her innovative use of broad washes, and her portraits, both miniature and full-scale, are powerful evocations of character, expression, and mood.
