Be careful when having the icon blessed. An Orthodox priest really got carried away one time with the blessing of an icon I had just paid someone to write. The colors started running really badly and I had to call in immediately the iconographer to save the icon.

Is that why the Linseed oil is applied? I’m curious.

I'm Serbian Orthodox and we too say that an icon should be blessed, although I personally dont think its necessary because by default an icon is holy by the image that is depicted, whether that is of our Lord, the most holy Theotokos, a saint or biblical event/feast day. No priest, bishop or Patriarch can be greater than the person or event depicted in the icon. Icons are beautiful and are our windows to heaven.

Hello, I very like your videos, do you think birch plywood and MDF (HDF) are the best for egg tempera? 2- For large pictures (in. 50 x 30 in.) Do I need a thickness of 18 millimeters? I am waiting for answering, thank you.

I wish you'd use a real person vs ai for talking. Otherwise, this is a very informative video about gilding.

In terms of consciousness-of, to put Huxley's book in context, think not The Doors of Perception but The Door of Perceptions and the icon of that door is The Impossible Trident Solution, which identifies the matrix facility of transcendental object visions

The word "Icon" is a Greek word and translates as "image". For the icon to have the power of guidance, defense, etc. it must be sanctified with the prayer of the Orthodox priest. There are also sorcerer and wizard icons with charms on them. The icon must be purchased only from the monastery or church and not be recieved as gift. The word "grace" translates as "the right given by Jesus Christ to priests to offer prayers of release, baptism, communion, etc.", grace can only have the priest and not a icon or anyone else. Today in the "modern" world the sorcerers remained in every city. The akathist read by a prayer with untying prayer to St. Ciprian and St. Justine read by a priest in your name defends from all witch spells, if you are baptized orthodox. And when you intend to go to command the akathist in the church, such thoughts may appear: "Maybe tomorrow, or next week", "Maybe I'm such a freak and no one is watching me (girls or boys, if you can not find a pair, or you can for some reason speak only with the same girl or boy.)", "The life is this way with good times and bad times", " I am so(if you have impotence)". etc. These thoughts come from demons from sorcery spells because only the prayer of the priest can untie the sorcery spells and they make everything possible that you not go to church to escape from witch spells. Jesus Christ told to the apostles (which were the first priests)"I give you the right to untie everything that is tied in heaven and on earth.". This akathist to st. Ciprian and st. Justine you can command at any orthodox church if you are baptized orthodox. Entering (submersion 3 times with a short prayer and crossing yourself)in water springs of orthodox saints(which are near or in monasteries) give very much power and sureness to people with depression, panic attacks, Tourette sindrom, schizofrenia and other soul illnesses before getting to the eucharisty that heals all soul illnesses. There are some springs of mother(Marof God that also heal all soul illnesses. Soul illnesses can be enherited or from sins. If to cure lechery the prostatitis may disapear.

its just because the icons darken over time

It is historical revisionism. Near Eastern and North African peoples were far paler in the time of Christ than they are now, due to Umayyad and Ottoman influence in centralizing and mixing the various ethnic groups within their borders. The earliest remaining depictions of Christ and his disciples, from the 3rd century AD, depict them as marginally tanner than the average Roman, probably comparable to modern day Sicilians in skin tone.
