Here's an icon of St. John of Damascus based on a prototype from Corfu that I just love. The icon is about 4.5 feet tall and will be in my living room until someone pries it from my metaphorical cold, dead hand:



The color in the upper corners is actually the background of my website, and is not part of the icon, just in case anyone was wondering.

And finally, since Michael mentioned St. Andrei Rublev, I thought I would post a picture of an icon of him (St. Andrei, not Michael) that I painted a couple months ago:

No it was one that I painted for a lady at my church. She saw the one that you bought when I had it in the show at St. Vincent last december and wanted a smaller one to give to her husband as a birthday present because his birthday is St. Andrei's feast day. So imagine the one you bought shrunk down to about 10 inches tall, and that's what it was....
