Caroline Cook was born in Cornwall and has painted horses and other animals since she was old enough to hold a paintbrush. She sold her first painting, a study of a fox cub, when she was 15. She is self taught and her paintings are mainly of horses in action, particularly racehorses, paddock and stud scenes in vibrant but subtle acrylics.
Until recently, she only undertook private commissions, as she combined her painting with her role as assistant to her husband, former West Country racehorse trainer, Trevor Hallett. Many of these commissions are of National Hunt horses including the great Desert Orchid for his trainer, David Elsworth.
Caroline's paintings reflect her love of thoroughbreds and her passion for racing. Her work with racehorses, particularly her knowledge of racing injuries and their treatment has enhanced her understanding of the anatomy of the horse, which is reflected in her work. Caroline Cook is resident artist at Cheltenham Racecourse. A permanent stand on Race Days is situated in Hurdlers Hall behind the Arkle statue.
