About the Icon workshop

‍

Much easier than the contemporary human portrait, the rules are quite similar, you will learn all the steps and tricks to make your own original icon mosaic! Through this workshop you will experience all the rules and tricks of the Byzantine method as taught at the Spilimbergo school. Byzantine mosaic is so special and each icon has something magical, don't you think? You will be given a short theory lesson for each important step of the creation of your week. You will learn how to handle the mosaic hammer to create the tesserae that give that inimitable look of the school's mosaics.The mixing of colors, thanks to the smalti, will give that unique rendering thanks to the Byzantine andamenti. A golden background can be realized, with some fees calculated from the surface to cover.
