Lilias Trotter drew and painted from an early age. Her sketchbooks were always with her on travels. Many of her paintings show desert landscapes, plants and flowers as well as people encountered during her journeys inland. Samples of her drawings and paintings may also be found in her diaries (Boxes 17-18), journals (Boxes 11, 13) and scrapbooks(Boxes 21-23).
