Between 1903 and 1913 Maud was living in Leicester and exhibiting regularly at Nottingham Castle Museum. She was elected a Member of STISA, by five votes to three, at their meeting on 14th July 1929, on the basis of two of her paintings.

Her watercolours were neither mentioned in STISA's reviews nor selected for the Touring Shows. In 1931 she is known to have tenanted one of the studios managed by Lanham's, implying that she was resident in the town at the time.  It is thought (by Tovey) that she was possibly the sister of William Archibald GUNN.
