Anthony Frost was born in St Ives, the son of artist (Sir) Terry FROST and his wife Kath. Always amongst artists from birth, he studied painting and design first in Banbury, Oxfordshire, where his family was living at the time, and then at Cardiff College of Art 1970-3.

In 1974 he returned to Cornwall, setting up his own studio and home with his wife Linda. Aside from his own devotion to colours and shapes (the chevron being the shape that comes readily to mind), Anthony's outgoing and generous personality has meant in the communal sense that he shares his work with others, young and old, and speaks through his work and teaching of the intense passion that art is for him. Often a painting from him arrives encased in a box decorated similarly to go with it, the extra measure that he gives.

For many years Linda Frost has been Head of the Arts Development team at the John Daniel Centre for people with special needs; some of their pupil artists have achieved semi-professional status in their annual craft and painting exhibitions, also due to the time and attention given by the couple. His use of strong primary colours is a hallmark of his abstract work.
