Icon painting with egg tempera, individual classes, historical technique

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 9 years of practice teaching people how to do it. We work together step by step to understand the technique, the way to prepare wooden panel to paint an icon and the techniques of making a good project to make the icon fit to the board. We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the nimbs. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

Extra information

Before our lesson I will send you a detailed information on the materials needed. If you're just starting and don't know how to get the materials - don't worry, I can share all materials needed to start and learn! Just let me know, what is best option for you! During our sessions, I will also give you necessary detailed advice to buy your own materials, because the best option is to work with your own brushes and pigments.

About Me

I was born in Warsaw. I graduated in Art History from the University of Warsaw, where I became fascinated with the art of the christian Orthodox Church and began to paint icons. In 2009 I started studying in Christian East Studium in Warsaw, and then I started working as a teacher of icon painting in 2013, in the workshop "The Way to The Beauty". In 2015 I decided to move to Belgium, where In found in Brussels the Academy of Icon Painting founded by Russian artist Irina Gorbunova-Lomax. I'm currently completing my studies there.
As a musician I graduated from the State High School of Music ‘Józef Elsner’ in Warsaw in the double bass class, and later, from the State High School of Music ‘Fryderyk Chopin’ in Warsaw, where I became a professional musician specialising in the viola da gamba. Currently, I'm studying at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, continuing my baroque music studies, playing the violone with James Munro.
During my artistic career, I had given concerts in Poland, Denmark, Germany and Italy with many groups of ancient, folk and traditional music, notably with ‘Collegium Musicum Bednarska’, ‘Lublin Castle Band “Alta”’, ‘Ærøfolkehøjskole Band’ and ‘Kukawica’.
In 2019, I also began studying instrument building at CMB Puurs, where I build violas da gamba of all sizes.

Experience / Qualifications

I'm a painting icons teacher since 2013. I work with adults with individual approach, to tailor my methods to every person's needs and way of learning. During my career as a teacher I worked already with about 50 people, who then started their own artistic work as icon painters - both professional and hobby.

MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen. I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist. I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns. In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on. You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns. Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Sruthi
Tutor in Art History as well as Drawing and painting art for Adult Learners
Art History has an interesting approach to understanding cultures and traditions. It provides an insight into human behaviour and emotion. It ties up the skill sets of an artist with history, politics and events that would have enhanced a masterpiece. Having worked as a tutor in adult learning, I can provide varied topics of study in Masterpieces, hidden secrets and political influences. As a practising artist, I can provide drawing and painting in watercolours, Acrylics and silk painting.

Erhan
Spiritual Healing & Religious Studies & Metaphysics
Hi, my name is Erhan. Welcome to this brief yet profound introduction to Spiritual Healing lessons with Master Erhan. I am a published writer with books in both English and Turkish, focusing on spirituality and mysticism, since 2016. I have been dedicated to guiding people on their spiritual journeys, helping them heal, and illuminating the light within their lives. I believe that touching hearts is one of the most profound ways to bring transformation. There is a hidden connection from heart to heart—one that many are unaware of. In life, we sometimes find ourselves trapped in a cycle of confusion, unable to see a way forward. Breaking free from that cycle is key, and I am here to help you navigate your path toward clarity and healing. In-depth Spiritual Healing Lessons : A Journey Within We will take the first step in getting to know one another as Master and Student. This will be a space of openness, trust, and connection. I believe that transformation begins with the heart—when we truly connect, healing and growth follow. My purpose is to help you break free from the cycles that hold you back, guiding you toward clarity, healing, and spiritual awakening. How I Can Support You : If you are seeking insight and guidance in any of the following areas, I am here to assist you : Mysticism – Understanding deeper spiritual truths and esoteric wisdom. Spirituality – Cultivating inner peace, purpose, and divine connection. Metaphysics – Exploring the unseen dimensions of existence. Energetic & Spiritual Healing – Identifying and addressing imbalances that MANIFEST as unseen or unheard ailments. Divine Connection – Strengthening your relationship with God and the Source. Relationship Consultations – Healing emotional wounds from past experiences that still affect you today. Many of life’s challenges stem from metaphysical causes that often go unnoticed. You may feel a persistent heaviness—spiritually, emotionally, or psychologically--without knowing how to find relief. During this introductory lesson, we will take a more in-depth look at your spiritual well-being, uncover hidden blockages, and begin identifying the healing you may need. This is the first step toward restoring balance and wholeness. You Are Not Alone! Your journey is yours to walk, but you do not have to walk it alone. I am here to guide and support you—every step of the way. Wishing you light and clarity, Master Erhan

Idris
Painting Tutor: Discover and develop your artistic language
I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London. Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don't always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you! Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs. The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language. (Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.) Have questions? Don't hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

CONTEMPORARY VISUAL ART: UNDERSTANDING AND PRACTICE
KEY OBJECTIVES: • To introduce the right toolkit to take on contemporary art of any kind, no matter how difficult, minimal and conceptually driven it may be. • To learn to spot and call out artwork that is being difficult or challenging because it’s a load of rubbish. • To make you feel more confident when making and looking at contemporary art! How can we be so categorical about something as subjective as deciding if art is ‘good’ or ‘bad’? Think of it like this: If you’re not any good at carpentry, you can still identify a poorly made coffee table. Basically, what we’re going to try to do is understand how to recognise if an artwork has been responsibly made or not. In the case contemporary art that has been made responsibly, this class will suggest that your kid could not have made it, any more than they could have removed your appendix, designed a suspension bridge or landed a crashing helicopter. In the case of art that has not been made responsibly, then yes, perhaps your kid could have made it.
