Advanced Icon Painting Course: Free Subject 11/2027

The icon painting course is suitable for those with basic icon painting skills and who have already painted a few icons. The subject to be painted during the course is chosen according to the painter's skill level and painted using traditional egg tempera technique on a pre-primed icon board. If desired, the background or halo of the icon can be gilded, and it is also possible to learn the use of assist gilding, for example, in the radiant brightening of clothes or wings. We will jointly review the content and theology of the icon themes during the course. Supplies and materials can be purchased from the academy. The course instruction begins on November 4th; accommodation for the previous night is included in the course price, and any meals on November 3rd are paid at normal prices at Trapeza.
