Art and Icons

Icon Painting Technique  new BookGod and Egg Tempera Technique

The infinite range of imagination and potential found in Classic iconography has influenced my life. I have been trying for 2 decades to artistically merge my respectful fascination with the tradition and contemporary interpretation. Therefore the images on the web sites do not always come from any classic tradition or inspired doctrine. I am self taught with 25 years’ and experience God and Egg Tempera Technique. How can anyone fit into the mind of God, the one the icon painters had 1,500 years ago

I believe I have been given the desire to paint, and at time I feel like a slave to it. The icons picked me! The work explores both contemporary life and traditional image using the egg tempera technique and 100% gold real leaf.
