Orthodox icon hand painted featuring Virgin Mary and infant Jesus holding tenderly His mother. This religious icon is entirely handmade on wood, with beautiful soft colors on the garments, stunningly calm expression on the Holy faces that are surrounded by the brilliant 24k halos and sky blue on the background.
This Christian icon, that was made according to the traditional Byzantine art, is the perfect luxury and at the same time prayerful anniversary gift for your beloved wife. It would look great on the home prayer corner reminding the intimate and tender bond between Holy Mother and Child. A perfect sign of attention on any religious occasion and a spiritual piece of art, to be cheriched and handed down to loved ones for generations to come.
⌘ PROCEDURE: First of all I prepare the wood with special materials so I can carefully sketch the figure on it. After that I start painting the basic colors and later on I come back many times with my various brush sizes to end up to the concrete details of the Holy faces. This icon is made according to the traditional old art of byzantine iconography where the image is painted on wood or canvas, with egg tempera (egg yolk, vinegar and color in dust) and gold metal leaves. After painted, it is varnished so it is preserved through time. My aim is to draw friendly and merciful holy faces so that their gentleness inspires somebody to pray and hope.
