Charles Mills was a portrait painter, muralist, and landscape artist as well as a designer and stained glass artist. He studied with Frank Duveneck in Germany for 10 years. Upon returning to the United States he settled in Boston and established a studio.

At 90, Mills's eyesight failed, and he gave up his studio. He could no longer paint nor read. He loved flowers and kept a flower garden until he was 98.
