more icon junk

 Beloved_Speak asked 'did you find the process of creating it [the icon] to be meditative?'

Not really, but mostly because it was a class; there was someone always looking over your shoulder and correcting you. I would guess that when you're "good at it" and can do a lot of the stuff without overthinking that it might take on a meditative quality.

I'm working on a second one now; it's a different experience, but not a relaxing one, as I'm a little focused on my paint mixing skills, which could best be described as 'primitive'. We'll see if it becomes meditative; for now, I pray a little before I start work, and when I am done. We'll see if that evolves into a prayerful process.

oh yes. that's what differentiates them from baby-faced Catholicky realistic renaissancish 'religious art.'

Why should they be primitive? What's wrong with baby-faced Catholicky realistic renaissancish "religious art"?

Hello Todd,
You worked hard to make your site simple yet elegant. The pictures are a nice touch. I see that you are a student. I’m glad that’s all over with for me!
I like to write articles about God and religion on my site. I want to help people to really get to know God, especially in these troubled times. Jesus gave us a message of hope that is in the Bible: 14 "When the good news about the kingdom has been preached all over the world and told to all nations, the end will come." (Matthew 24:14) (CEV) I hope you get a chance to look at them.
