Highly recommend the #BerylCook exhibition at The Box in Plymouth.
Underrated in her time, she captured ordinary life and joyful moments wtih wit and warmth.

Last day of challenge and it’s another Muriel, who was definitely in her prime when writing this.
The very flawed, unorthodox, and fascist Miss Jean Brodie.
A statue of the shopper from her “Pannier Market” painting, outside the Plymouth Pannier Market.
Beryl’s painting of shoppers & traders with the fruit, vegetable & bakery stalls in the Pannier Market.
Traders with their fruit & vegetables. Brings back memories of visiting Mrs Pearn’s stall for eggs & hogs pudding.
“Pannier Market” - 1978

Beryl loved to paint everyday scenes, like the stalls with shoppers & traders in the Market.
Displayed “Pride & Joy” exhibition, The Box, Plymouth
A Beryl Cook Trail has four larger than life characters, such as the shopper, from her paintings.

Beryl Cook’s painting of herself with her cat & tortoises.
“Feeding the Tortoises” - 1983

Beryl had a great deal of recognition late in life & particularly with the retrospective “Pride & Joy” exhibition, The Box, Plymouth
However, this did not fit with her withdrawn personality, preferring her pets to public life.

Popped to @theboxplymouth.bsky.social to take a look at the new #BerylCook exhibit ‘Pride & Joy’ - an excellent way to spend a wet afternoon off work :). Never been a big fan of her work (sorry!), but it was beautifully curated, & I really enjoyed learning about her art/inspiration. Worth a visit 🥰

This 100th birthday show in Cook’s home town is an exuberant celebration of working-class frivolity

Never formally trained, Beryl Cook (born 10 Sept 1926) started painting in 1960, after introducing her small son to his box of watercolours. Her paintings reflected her delight in observing humanity at close quarters & her own wide & varied experience. #BerylCook
