She was appointed "Miniature Painter to the Princess Charlotte of Wales" from 1808 until the premature death of her patron on 6 November 1817, shortly after failing to deliver a royal heir.

[1] After ten years of exhibiting at the Royal Academy and having been appointed "Miniature Painter to the Princess Charlotte of Wales" in 1808, she started her own business in Lower Grosvenor Street in London in 1810.

[citation needed] Her most well known work was "The Princess Charlotte, from her Cradle to her Grave", a triptych made up of twelve portraits of her erstwhile patron.

Princess Charlotte of Wales died shortly after failing to deliver a royal heir.
