Experiencing the painting of an Icon of Saint George

St. George was a high ranked military officer in the Roman Army that suffered martyrdom for announcing his Christian faith. (A.D.303)

I have admired his life story for how popular he became to many denominations of Christian churches.  In mid-2021 I was inspired to start this painting and have worked on it off and on for several months as the painting came to life. Now, nearing completion, I am looking forward to installing it at St. George Orthodox Church in Prescott.  A limited number of prints will be available.  Email me if you are interested.

Having been fascinated with Byzantine Iconography and painting techniques, I am truly

appreciative and grateful for the aesthetic pleasure I acquired from this project’s experience.
