Elspeth Cameron (1949-2016) worked in many artistic fields, printmaking, drawing, painting, photography and art history. She was a respected and integral member of the Stanthorpe Art Gallery Society for many years, Borderline Regional Arts Association and the Botanical Artists' Society of Queensland.
In this plan for the Tin Tree sculpture in Farley Piazza, she sketched out her ideas for the street art piece. The Tin Tree represents the Roll-up Tree which was a large eucalyptus in the early days of Stanthorpe, under which public meetings and speeches were held.
