Creating New Icons of Irish Saints Wednesday, 1 April 2020 at 8pm POSTPONED (new date to be set) An icon.
Independent consultant, coach and executive coach
An icon is a religious work of art, most commonly a painting, originating in the cultures of the churches of the East. It employs a characteristic, and very ancient, artistic style often referred to as the Greek/Byzantine style. This talk covers the research involved in designing and painting new icons of Irish saints in this style.
Over the past seven years Colette has developed thirteen new icons of Irish saints for several churches around Ireland.
Her talk will be based on her work in preparing those icons: from the selection of the wooden support, the drawing of the saint being portrayed, the etching, gilding, painting, down to the final varnished completed piece of work.
COLETTE CLARK initially studied Medical Laboratory Sciences in DIT, Kevin Street, Dublin. She worked for several years as a medical laboratory scientist in various Dublin hospitals.
