Peter Pearson, MDiv, ThD
The Angel of the Lord
?Byzantine Iconography is a highly structured and disciplined art form which combines prayer and painting techniques to create serene images of Christ, Mary, the angels and the saints following centuries old guidelines. Peter Pearson has been studying and painting icons for more than fifty years and teaching others to do so for over half that time. He's authored three books on the subject and has painted hundreds of icons for churches, monasteries, seminaries, convents, and individuals all over the world. Peter's students number in the thousands and each has walked away with an icon of their very own. No previous experience or natural talent is required. We paint, pray, and follow the simple step-by-step instructions. All materials provided.
This Advent we will be working g from a prototype icon of “The Angel of the Lord” in a very unique style, a bit of a Western feel is evident in the softness of the image.
We work Thursday evening after dinner, Friday evening after dinner, all day Saturday (9 am - 4 pm), and half-day Sunday (1 - 4 pm). There will be additional times available to work on a second icon for those who are interested. This is completely optional.
Fee: Single, $625 includes meals and lodging; Commuter, $425 includes 2 dinners and 1 lunch. Pre-registration required.
