The Sacred Art Gallery Presents: Iconographer Brenda Fox Live at our September Art Walk
Step into sacred tradition during The Sacred Art Gallery’s September Art Walk on Friday, September 12, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., as iconographer Brenda Fox offers a live demonstration of the ancient art of icon writing—a meditative practice where prayer and pigment become one.
A Catholic convert and seasoned teacher of the sacred arts, Fox has studied under esteemed iconographers across the world, including Fr. Damian Higgins, Ksenia Pokrovsky, and The Prosopone School of Iconology. Drawing on more than two decades of experience in both art therapy and spiritual formation, she invites viewers into the slow, intentional process of iconography—where each line is a prayer, and every image a window into heaven.
As the iconographic tradition teaches, “Icons are not just painted—they are written. They become for us a window into eternity.”
