Edie, I have not forgotten about getting the pix uploaded. I am writing an icon for the consecration of the new Orthodox Bishop of Pittsburgh that needs to be done by Friday. I will get the pix uploaded in the morning.
how do you write an icon? I thought they were pictures (for lack of a better word because I know they're more than that) along the line of a work of art.
I did see the pics - they're just terrific (very professional looking)
will share with my son, he'll be most appreciative (and he'll get a chuckle out of your Miroslav S. comment - we say his last name at my house)
Orthodox icons are said to be written because the iconographer (person painting the icon) passes the icon on from generation to generation without adding or subtracting anything from the icon. Thus the iconographer is said to be writing the icon, much like if he were writing a theology text.
