Stanton's professional career as an artist began in Atlanta in 1896, with a commission for three miniature portraits of soprano Adelina Patti. She went on to paint many of the distinguished citizens of Georgia, including Atlanta mayor Charles Collier (ca. 1899), Joel Chandler Harris (1906, 1914), and Howell Cobb, whom she portrayed as Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.
