Painter, born in Kent. After initial training at Beckenham School of Art she went on to study at Royal College of Art, 1954–7. From there travelled to Rome for a year on an Abbey Minor Scholarship. Back in England she met and married the painter Roger Hilton and they moved to Botallack, Cornwall. She then brought up her children and looked after her husband during his long illness, but painted little herself. After Roger’s death she resumed painting and took drawing lessons in the mid-1980s from Cecil Collins. Her exhibitions included Newlyn Orion Gallery, 1977 and 1987; Michael Parkin Gallery, 1988; Oxford Gallery, 1989; David Messum, 1991; and North Light Gallery, Huddersfield, 2002. In that year she showed at Badcocks Gallery, Newlyn, with one of her sons, Fergus.
