The Spirit of True Love!
From A Dedicated Icon Painter and Writer
Mary Jane Miller, an icon painter and writer and one of the most compelling modern iconographers of the modern world. She is known for her contemporary sacred art collection.
She describes each of her icon paintings as a visual meditation, a process by which she finds answers to the eternal questions she constantly asks herself.
The Sacred Art collection reflects modern life through modern icon painting techniques. Yet, her painting process is rooted in ancient traditional rules of iconography as an icon painter and writer, she often finds her inspiration in the works of the ancient Byzantine iconography painters of Russia, Greece and Eastern Europe.

From A Dedicated Icon Painter and Writer
Our icon painting courses highlight the contemplative experience through sacred icon art.
Come celebrate your distinct spiritual and artistic ability. Anyone can draw on their very own intimate and spiritual selves and create a visual expression of who they are.
“I have come to see the world as a metaphor, nearly everything which happens to us is screaming to be understood through the eye of spirit, we just need to reflect long enough to hear the message.”
In The Studio, San Miguel Allende
We offer ongoing three week icon paint workshops in the Studio in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. The week days are determined group by group since it is difficult to find time and organize all our schedules.
