Daisy Mary Rossi b. 18 January 1879

  • Artist (Painter)
Daisy Mary Rossi was the first woman member of the Town Planning Board in Perth, WA. She made a number of interesting statements such as, "Why should Australia always be represented by dull colored bush, huge, unwieldy eucalypts? We should have more frequently artists who will rise up and say, "Australia shall be shown in riotous, beautiful, blatant coloring".
