Fraulein Rudder is a graduate of the Port of Spain Teacher's Training College with distinction in Art. The driving force behind her art was her father who from childhood provided her with materials including her first tin of watercolour at age nine. He sold her first painting at age ten. She was a student of the late M.P. Alladin and late Sybil Atteck in her formative years.

She has produced and published a book, "Women in Art 2000" comprising 38 women artists of Trinidad and Tobago. The hosting of the Annual Women In Art Exhibition over the years from 1997 to the present has been quite successful. She was also instrumental in the introduction of the Women In Art Biennial Art Competition for Fifth and Sixth Form Art Students of all Secondary Schools from 1998 to the present.

Fraulein has held a number of solo exhibitions in Trinidad as well as Tobago and participated in several group shows including the Commonwealth "Exhibition Through the Eyes The Artist" held in Kensington, London, (1997), Carifesta V Trinidad & Tobago (1992) & CarifestaVII (St. Kitts, Nevis, 2000), all the "Women In Art" Exhibitions (1997-2005) and "Trinidad & Tobago Forty Years of Art Exhibition" both at the Central Bank Auditorium and the National Museum. She is a recipient of an award from the Diego Martin Community for her contribution to Art and Culture and was included among the women to whom tribute was paid on "International Women’s Day" Fraulein was honoured especially in the field of Visual Arts in "Women In Culture" by the Ministry of Community Development Culture and Gender Affairs, 2005& 2006

Her works are displayed at private homes both at home and abroad. Also at Corporate Firms, the Tobago House of Assembly (Culture Division), the Permanent Collection of the National Museum and Art Gallery, The Ministry of Community Development Culture and Gender Affairs.

Her preferred medium is Alkyd, which she loves because of its vibrant colours and flexibility and has been painting professionally since 1987. Her commissioned works includes the cover of an exercise book ‘Suffer Little Children To Come Unto Me", the Military Museum and portraits.

Her philosophy is "There is need for peace in this chaotic world in which we live. My paintings depict peace and serenity, which every soul needs. I find this in the presence of nature and hope to share it with my viewers."

This Siparia born artist tries to inject that peace and serenity of the countryside where she was born.

She has given generously to charity during her painting career. To name a few; The Cancer Society, The Shelter, AWC Auction, Coalition against Domestic Violence, Lions Club, Benefit Auctions etc. She is presently working on a mural for the St. James Radiotherapy Centre to which she has already donated a painting.

The artist is married to Arnim Rudder (dec.). They have three children, all girls, Charmaine, Michelle and Simone.
