second_title2Former Caelum et Terra editor Daniel Nichols now works as an iconographer and a leader of iconography workshops. Choose from his gallery, which includes images of the Lord, the Blessed Mother, and various saints; or commission a custom work.

If you were thinking, for instance, of purchasing a statue for a garden shrine, Daniel recommends an icon instead, finished with an outdoor varnish to withstand the weather. It’s an idea I like, and I feel sure that he can arrange it.

Daniel’s colors are sharp, vivid, maybe even a little psychedelic—for traditional icon colors, at any rate. I admire the fresh energy in these images.

Visit him today at Eighth Day Icons.

Dear Reader,

You have a decision to make: double or nothing.

For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.

In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.

So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?

Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
