Damian Higgins, Russian Master Iconographer Ksenia Pokrovsky, The Iconographic Institute in Mt. Angel, OR, and The Prosopone School of Iconology.

With more than 20 years of expertise, Brenda uniquely combines her background in art, therapy, and spirituality to make iconography a transformative experience for her students.
