    From a tiny mosaic in the V&A.

    Someone suggested I share some of my work, so here is one. I'm afraid the photo doesn't really do it justice; the background should be gold coloured. But you get the general idea.

    And a Trinity, after Rublev. This one has pure gold highlights.

    Those are very good. Are you using liquid leaf or gold paint for the backgrounds?

    Thank you. I have hundreds of icons.

    It is just gold paint. I use Gold leaf only for highlights. I have liquid leaf but rarely use it.

    Yes. First is Byzantine, second Russian.

    I use every style, including my own.
