Week Two

The first photo is of the PERFECT tin I found at the thrift store. It is from 1986, made in West Germany. I thought it was pretty, so I bought it and put all my paints in it. They couldn't fit more perfectly. God provides!

One of the more advanced students is doing an icon of the Holy Prophet Elijah (Elias). She will probably finish two icons in the time this workshop meets.

The next picture is one of the Nursing Mother of God. The base colors are almost complete, except for the background, border, and hair.

I was able to begin an icon today. Any guesses what the pattern is? I'll fill you in next week.
