Eighth Day Icons

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.
