Charlotte Moore's work will appeal to anyone interested in painting, and especially those who have learned about culture in museums and galleries. Her paintings assert the quiet dignity of traditional art practice. The first impression her work gives is one of material beauty, of the seriousness of the studio, of canvas, oil, brushes and palette. The second impression is of intellectual coherence; Moore's paintings are a testament to her knowledge and appreciation of Western painting as well as a deep underlying current of classical and world cultures. Her knowledge of the process of making artworks, together with her knowledge of history, means her work has both integrity and narrative purpose.
