Faith Puleston
Profile
I am British but live in Herdecke, a small town in Germany
Divorced with 2 children (Fiona 34, David 31)
I was born in Wales and studied singing, piano, composition and music theatre in London. After completing my finals (Recital Diploma), I moved to Europe to learn German and attend theatre auditions. I sang leading roles in opera throughout Europe until I had to drastically curtail my theatre work to concentrate on being a single parent. My activities include translating, teaching, composing and arranging music, coaching rhetoric and voice, running a barbershop chorus, writing professionally for a schoolbook publisher, writing poems and stories for my own pleasure. I came to painting on a regular basis in 2000 and have worked intensively at it since then.

The Turn of the Millenium I
There will be no more Sundays for me ….
The Jacket
While Harry was in the back garden singing as he went, Florence was in the bedroom turning out the wardrobe.
A long way to go
James took his mother’s hand.
Silent witness
The boys appeared not to have noticed her.
Unwanted guest
Suddenly, she heard a voice shouting “For God’s sake, open the damn gate! My wife’s having a baby.”
Little Brown Jug
What small child cares whether her clothes are ironed, if there is warmth in the good night kiss on her cheek?
