About Charlotte

Charlotte Cripwell has painted landscapes and private portrait commissions internationally for more than 25 years. After studying for a degree in Fine Art and Music, she went on to train in Old Master techniques of portraiture and sculpture for three years at the Charles Cecil School in Florence. She travelled extensively with her paints, resting for longer periods where inspiration took a hold - Zimbabwe, India, France, Ireland, Scotland - finally settling with her husband and three children in Cornwall.

Testimonials

  • Charlotte's brief was to create two informal portraits which would capture the essence of us both. She skilfully achieved this, having created a relaxed atmosphere and combining it with engaging and amusing conversation. We are delighted with the results.

  • I wanted to thank you for a most interesting and illuminating experience. l had not anticipated having your portrait done could be such fun. The fact that such a young, fresh and perceptive eye as yours has caught something that everyone who has seen the portrait recognises instantly is, quite simply, overwhelming.
