✨ Workshop in Traditional Orthodox Iconography

Led by Elisabeth Belomlinsky 

Step into the sacred tradition of icon painting through a hands-on, immersive workshop rooted in centuries-old Orthodox techniques. 

Guided by classically trained artist Elisabeth Belomlinsky, this course offers students of all backgrounds a chance to explore the spiritual and artistic discipline of iconography in an intimate, contemplative setting.

🕊 What You’ll Learn:

Egg Tempera Painting – Mix and apply pigments with egg yolk in the traditional method used by Byzantine and Russian iconographers.

Gold Leaf Application – Master the delicate process of gilding with genuine gold leaf for halos and backgrounds.

Iconographic Drawing & Symbology – Study sacred proportions, symbolism, and visual language passed down through generations.

Spiritual Practice & Process – Understand iconography as both art and prayer, where intention is as vital as technique.

📚 No prior experience necessary
