sketcher, painted some watercolours of flowers in an unidentified album (WA Museum, Perth). A crude yellow flower is signed and dated October 1859, a geranium carries her initials, while an unsigned bunch of flowers, including fuchsias, a rose, tulips and a camellia, painted in a formal Regency style, is probably also her work. Pencil copies in the album are by T.M. Burgess of Noarlunga, South Australia, suggesting that Lashbrooke’s flower painting was also executed in that colony.
