Holy Icons

[Orthodox Andrew]

Please post some Icons for our new Chapel.:)

[Photini]

[Michael the Iconographer]

Here is the icon of St. Michael the Archangel which I wrote a number of years ago.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Another icon by the hand of Michael, this one written last summer. The icon of St. George, patterned after the famous icon from Novgorod.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Christ Enthroned in Glory, one of my favorite icons which I have written.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Our holy father among the saints, St. Patrick Apostle to Ireland. This one was written last fall.

[Michael the Iconographer]

This is one of my absolute favorite icons to write, and he was highly influential in the process of my converting from Roman Catholicism to Orthodoxy.

[Michael the Iconographer]

What would a chapel be without an icon of St. Nicholas. Most Orthodox Iconostasis have a large icon of St. Nicholas on the first row of icons.

[Suzannah]

My patron. :)

[Suzannah]

The Champion of Serbian Orthodoxy! :)

[Michael the Iconographer]

St. Euphrosynos, the Cook, whose icon rightly belongs in all Orthodox kitchens.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Sent to Abgar, who upon seeing the original of this icon, was cured of leaprosy.

[Reader Nilus]

The following is of St Tikhon of Moscow Enlightener of America. In it he is holding the temple I became Orthodox in, Holy Trinity Chapel in Wilkeson, Washington.

St. Tikhon, Patriarch of Moscow, Enlightener of North America

[Michael the Iconographer]

Sts. Jambilicus, Martinian, Dionysius, Constantine, Anthony, John and Maximillian (and their dog). One of my all time favorite icons.

[Michael the Iconographer]

The Prophet Jonah and the Whale

[Michael the Iconographer]

St. Mary of Egypt with the holy father St. Zosima kneeling before her.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Every chapel needs a cross in it.

[Michael the Iconographer]

The Holy Spiritual Father St. Sisoes the Great kneeling before the bones of the great military leader, Alexander the Great. I think this icon says alot about what is important to the spiritual life.

[Eusebios]

Here is an icon of my parishes Patronal feast, The Dormition of The Most Holy Theotokos

His unworthy servant,
Eusebios.
:bow:

[Michael the Iconographer]

Even thought I converted to Orthodoxy 5 years ago, and began the conversion process 7 or 8 years ago, he still ranks at the top of my list of favorite Saints.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Writing this icon did alot for healing my views of St. Paul, which had been tainted by all of my fundamentalist friends in college.

[Michael the Iconographer]

This icon is a cropping of a much larger icon of the entombment, but I felt the expression of love on the face of the Theotokus justified my painting only this section of the icon of the entombment.

[Michael the Iconographer]

St. John gave much effort to defending Holy Icons from the Iconoclasts.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Let us love one another, so that with one mind we may confess Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the Trinity, one in essence and undivided.

This icon depicts a type of the Holy Trinity as they appeared to Abraham and Sarah by the oaks of Mamre. Three Angels visited them, but they spoke as by one voice. One was the Angel of the Lord, in other words, the Lord Jesus Christ. He received worship, which only God can do. The three appeared as a type of the Trinity. There is an altar with a central chalice in the middle of the three. This is to show the fellowship of love that exists from eternity past in the Holy Trinity. This icon is patterned after Andrei Rublev's Old Testament Trinity icon.

[Michael the Iconographer]

This icon was written in memorial of a friend who was martyred in Kenya, Fr. John Kaiser. May God grant him memory eternal.

[Michael the Iconographer]

Genesis 2:19-20: And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

More icons for our chapel!

I think our chapel should have Synaxis of Saints of America, St. Sergius of Radonezh, Elders of Optina Monastery and St. Sophia, FAITH, HOPE, and LOVE

[Philip]

Holy Myrrhbearer and Equal-To-the-Apostles Mary Magdalene
When God, who is transcendent in essence,
Came with flesh into the world, O Myrrhbearer,
He received you as a true disciple, for you turned all your love toward Him;
Henceforth you would yourself work many healings.
Now that you have passed into heaven, never cease to intercede for the world!

What would a chapel be without a few of the Great Feasts?

And why has it taken this long for an icon of our patron to be put up?!
