Charlotte Anne "Singy" Tevis, a vice president of S.H. Tevis & Son Oil Co. and painter, died of an aneurysm Monday at Johns Hopkins Hospital. She was 58.

Ms. Tevis, who was born in Baltimore and raised in Westminster, was a 1963 graduate of the Devereaux School in Devon, Pa.

Ms. Tevis, a Park Heights Avenue resident, earned a bachelor of arts degree from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 1967. During the 1970s, she owned the Main Street Boutique in Westminster.

Since 1985, she had been a vice president of S.H. Tevis & Son Oil Co., a family-owned business based in Westminster.

Ms. Tevis used vintage family photographs and those acquired from yard sales and flea markets as inspiration for her work.

Painting in oils at her Hampden studio, she replaced the grays and whites of the vintage photos, which dated from the turn of the century to the 1940s, with more vivid colors. "I like the black-and-white photographs," she told The Sun in a 1992 interview. "It gives me a lot of leeway in terms of color. It's easier to see more clearly with black-and-white."

Her work appeared at Artscape in 1990 and in many regional shows.

Ms. Tevis was a member of the Pot Luck Singing Group, which meets regularly to sing folk songs and gospel music.

She also maintained an interest in alternative medicine and nutrition, family members said.

Her marriage ended in divorce.

A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. tomorrow at Westminster Church of the Brethren, Bond Street and Park Place.

Ms. Tevis is survived by her daughter, Katerine Noel Tevis of Westminster; her mother, Dorothy Berry Tevis of Westminster; a brother, Stanley H. "Jack" Tevis III of Westminster; and a sister, Margaret L. Tevis of Arlington, Va.
