  • Artist (Cartoonist / Illustrator),
  • Artist (Painter)
Late colonial-era Adelaide painter and cartoonist. Most of her art work appears to have been small in scale with numerous flower studies painted on green paper only a few centimetres square. Despite their size Scott's works were well-regarded and purchasers of her work included the Duchess of Cornwall and York who was later to become Queen Mary.
