Coaton was born in Leicester and was educated at the Wyggeston School for Girls in that city before studying for a history degree at Bristol University.[1] After graduating she enrolled in the Leicester College of Art where she was taught sculpture by Percy Brown from 1937 to 1942.[2] In 1942 Coaton was awarded the Hinton Prize by the Leicester Society of Artists, of which she was an active member.[1][3][4] She was also a member of the Artists' International Association and frequently exhibited both wood, stone and bronze sculptures with both bodies.[2] For a time Coaton lived in Chelmsford in Essex before moving to Surrey, where she died in 2005.[1] The New Walk Museum in Leicester holds examples of her work.[2]
