For more than a thousand years, Eastern Christians have used
their hands and hearts to create icons, proclaiming God s reality
in a visible and breathtakingly beautiful way. This ancient art is
enjoying a renewed interest in the West, as people of faith create
icons and use them to meditate on mysteries for which there are no
words.
A Brush with God is a guide to painting icons and using them in
prayer. Written with warmth and energy, it describes the history of
icons and examines why they ve been a spiritual tool for so many
centuries. Written from a uniquely Western perspective, the book
guides artists from novices to professionals through the process of
icon painting, using traditional techniques but employing
contemporary materials. Included are eight full-color plates of the
artist s icons. "
