Come and make a Byzantine icon. This introductory course offers participants the opportunity to make an icon over six weeks. All materials will be provided including pigments and an authentic gessoed panel. With Cari’s guidance and support, participants will be able to choose between two head and shoulders Byzantine images. During the course, we will learn how to transfer the drawn image onto the panel, mix pigments and consider colours, and add layers of highlights beginning with the initial Proplasmos. We will not use gold leaf, but there will be gold paint for haloes, wings and garments. At the end of the course, our icons will be blessed.

Please bring a packed lunch. This course will meet on six Wednesdays between 10am and 4pm on the following dates:

Cari has worked as an Art psychotherapist for the past 20 years initially with children in the public sector and then with adults as a private practitioner with a special interest in spiritual abuse. She trained to be an Ignatian Spiritual Director eight years ago with an interest in the interface between trauma and an authentic spiritual journey. She started her career with a Degree in Art at Birmingham University and more recently going on to learn to make Icons with Peter Murphy (Master Iconographer) in Canterbury. “The liminal space in which all the arts exist seems to be an important place to heal and to grow in reflective contemplation”.
