Hello!

Thank you for visiting! All of my icons are painted by hand in egg tempera in my studio in West Des Moines, Iowa. Here is what goes into an egg tempera icon:

• clay bole

• 24k gold leaf

• egg yolk

• dry white wine

• dry pigments

Icons are painted on a traditional icon board (wood board with natural gesso) or on a mixed media panel. All icons are finished with archival varnish.
