It is possible to paint an icon of
Christ and the saints as a result of the Incarnation, so in many ways an icon of
Christ and the Mother of God is the "Ur" icon. I am particularly fond of the
icons of tenderness because they not only show a mother's tenderness towards her
child, but also as the child touches His mother, they show the Creator's
tenderness towards His Creation.

Over 18 years of painting, I have
painted more of the Virgin and child than of any other type.
