Nice modern finish to this Icon Flavio. It will fit along side nicely with the traditional versions. The use of blue and lack of heavy outline is a nice difference. I think they used mainly black mixed with red or yellow to get purple and green because blue was so expensive or rare. There is a lot of icon information on the internet these days. I think a lot of people still buy them. This somehow still fits in with your building paintings. Good job, Terry

Thanks, Lori H, I love it too! Now I am preparing a new icon of Mary Teotokos! I hope to paint it next January...

Flaviuo, I am Catholic too, I love this icon! You have chosen different colours for the clothes, compared with the traditional CHrist the teacher, and I like yours. Expression on Christ's face is beautiful!
