Constable and Caravaggio inspire OCA printmaking student
Another OCA printmaking student, Averil Wooton, produces confident work that glistens with technical spark and imaginative solutions and demonstrates what hard work can yield. Assessor David Winning talks us through a small selection of the work Averil submitted for assessment in March this year, for Printmaking at level one. There are lessons here for research, doing studies, preparation and technique. The video also shows how helpful looking at old masters’ work can be.

Wonderful work. 🙂 Yay for printmaking!
Im blown away by the impact these pieces have, a level I can only aspire too. Well done Averil!
What fantastic work, but it highlights my dilemma with seeing other people’s work on a particular course. I think ‘Wow, I could never do anything like that, not in a million years….and that’s only Level 1, the course I was planning next…’.
I responded to the last pieces (streets and buildings) much more that the first ones of the horse and the mill. I thought the last pieces had a beautiful sensitivity to them and wonder if they were also responses to old master works.
Many thanks for your kind comments – it’s very encouraging
