The icon-painting works presented on my page are made in the Russian and Byzantine canonical styles.
Evangelical simplicity without unnecessary embellishment is the main style of icon painting.
In any case, an icon is always a shrine, no matter in what picturesque manner it may be executed.
Any icon - be it a temple, dimensional, family, wedding - is not only interior decoration, it is, first of all, a pictorial image of a saint, which is designed to dispose the believer to prayer.
The circle of my interests is not limited only to icon painting. Graphics, painting, sculpture of small forms - fill creativity with air, fresh ideas and novelty, not allowing to stay in a confined space.
I will be glad if you like the works presented on this page.
Best regards, Gennady.
