Saint Olga of Alaska
Here is icon of Saint Olga of Alaska. I asked Iliinskaya icon painting workshop to write this icon for me. The idea was to create an educational set for children with some hands on activities (like tundra tea brewing). Do you like it ?
DIY educational icon?
I am working on an educational set that includes Holy Theotokos of Jerusalem icon, crystals, glue, tweezers, and book about Holy Theotokos with instructions how to decorate this icon. I think hands on lessons are always lead to better results (with parents help of course).
What do you think? Do you like this idea ?
My mother paints Orthodox icons by hand — sharing her work for the first time
Hello brothers and sisters,
I decided to start posting these beautiful icon paintings made by my mother because I genuinely believe her work deserves to be seen.
She has been painting icons for over 20 years, and honestly, there is too much beautiful work simply sitting around without an owner or even simple human appreciation.
So without further blabbering, here are the pictures.
P.S. #1 She’s getting older, but not much wiser when it comes to exposing her work online.
P.S. #2 If anyone is interested in acquiring this icon or any other icon, feel free to DM me.
