Fifi Colston is a New Zealand artist and television presenter who appears on the weekday morning series, "Good Morning" as the arts presenter.

Graduating from Victoria University of Wellington with a Diploma of Visual Communications Design in the early 1980s, Fifi moved to Christchurch and began her career in art. A commercial airbrush artist, design tutor, arts and crafts presenter on the children's show "What Now" and an illustrator of children's books, Fifi managed to juggle her many creative achievements which included giving birth to two children.

As a working mother, Fifi started using her wry sense of humour and expressed it as witty poetry and illustration for Next Magazine in a regular column for many years.

Later, she relocated back to Wellington with her husband and now teenaged children. She is a regular entrant in the Montana Wearable Art Awards and has been a finalist eight times and a four times award winner.

Fifi teaches workshops to kids and adults alike in the creative process and techniques involved in creating art for the stage and had a three month stint at Weta Workshop working on "".

After spending two years in Britain, Fifi returned to New Zealand to study scriptwriting at Victoria University's Institute of Modern Letters. She graduated with an MA in 2003.

She has two novels for the 8-12 age group, "Verity's Truth" and Janie Olive" published by Scholastic.
