Overview
Step-by-step instructions for painting icons, from original drawings through finished product. This is the sequel to the authors previous work, A Brush with God, for advanced beginners, intermediate, and advanced iconographers. It presents greater detail and instructions for creating entirely new icons. One major feature of this book is the full-page sketches that artists can photocopy and use as the basis of their own icons, providing a unique and much-requested resource. Includes eight full-color plates of the author's original icons.
Chapters and topics include:
- Introduction and contemporary reflections on iconography, spirituality, and technique.
- Highlighting folds on full-length figures, including black and white renderings of draped legs, arms, and torsos.
- Architectural and landscape renderings in Byzantine iconography, including background shadow and highlighting techniques, plus inverse perspective.
- Festal icons, involving multiple figures, landscapes, architecture, furniture, vegetation, and animals.
- Construction of heads, figures, and analysis of whole compositions, sacred geometry and proportion.
