Beautiful, thank you! I really appreciate how clearly you show and explain each step. Could you do a future video on chosing and mixing the colours/shades?
Regarding the comment about our nowadays Saints, I believe that if there is a realistic icon or even a photograph of the Saint, I'd love to see it in the church, too. It feels like a privilege to know there is a Saint who has leaved around my time and also know the way he looks like. Yes, personally, I love it ...that's my opinion
Thank you Antonis once again I really appreciate your lessons I love learning from you. Can you do a icon of saint. Charbel he's a very important holy hermit for all. Sincerely your best student Philip. Christos Invictus!!
Antonis I enjoy your videos so much! Your instruction is so clear and thoughtful. Thank you! Would you ever consider doing a video on iconographic drawing?
Christ is risen! Thank you Antonis for sharing your technique . I have been painting icons in the Russian tradition for 25 years and I have always admired the technique of the great Cretan iconographers , every time in Athens I visit the Byzantine Musee and the Benaki Museum ... I have to visit this year (I hope) in september friends in Crete, is it possible to see your work? to meet you? Best regards!
Hi Antonis, Merry Christmas! Thank you for your videos. Would it be possible to mention what sort of brushes you used for this icon, for each stage of the icon. Thank you very much.
Hi!! That's a very interesting question. I believe you would have to ask a theologian though. If I had to answer that, I would say (although protestants I believe don't have any icons in a church, or iconography in the tradition) go for it. Painting Christ is praying and I think that's good for everyone.
Invaluable, thank you, Antoni.

Tyy
The Cretan way is my favourite.
It's wonderful!
please continue your work! it has been helpful in my efforts to create reconstructions of Tetrarchic Iconography
Thanks for sharing!
I think we can use the modern pictures of Paisios and other modern Saints as a guide, but I like to see them remain in the Byzantine tradition.
Very beautiful.

Hi, thanks for sharing great videos! Could you tell us what brushes are you using?

You are very talented! What kind of paint do you use?
Thank you for commenting and subscribing! I use powdered Pigments with egg tempera. Paint well :)
Can you make an icon of Saint Seraphim of Sarov, please?
It's a great idea, and I really love him..

How do You achieve the blueish tone in the first underpainting under the lights in the hair? by adding some ultramarine?
I add some black and some blue to my greenish proplasmos color and make sure the result is not too dark but liquid/transparent enough. Paint well!
Fantastico. ..ma lavori con Acrilico o tempera all'uovo?
Grazie! Tempera all' uovo
Is it okay for a protestant to paint icons?
Asking cuz i want to start making some(one of Jesus Christ and the other of saint Christopher)

Do you have a Facebook to add you ? Please. Thank you
you can find me at Antonis Kosmadakis
..does it matter, really, isn't it a development of the art itself.
Thank you for commenting!!
