Still thinking about the icons and Vladislav Andrejev‘s step-by-step instructional video playing silently in the gallery of the Museum of Russian Icons. This shot was taken from relatively early on in the 267-minute demonstration.
Really like the luminous quality of the egg tempera and the elegant gesture of the poised hand.
The video retails for about $100.
To tide you over: an audio interview of Andrejev with slides.

The talented artists of LAND need your help to finish their animation about THE FUTURE. THE FUTURE has organic pancakes made by robots and a dream machine and a roller-coaster to the moon. Another reason to love LAND, and a great opportunity to get involved.
