WRITING AN ICON WITH SEMIPRECIOUS STONES This video shows an artist from our monastery workshop creating an icon of Saints Peter and Fevronia, the patron saints of Christian marriage and family life. The artist isn't using traditional tempera or acrylics, but natural pigments made from finely ground semiprecious stones and minerals. Using a miniature spoon, the artist is carefully applying the stone mixture onto the outlined image—a meticulous and prayerful process. 🔔 If this sacred art resonat
