Welcome to the Pelikan Scriptorium! Quill, the kitty, is here. Christ and the Theotokos are here. Saints and paints are here! Learn from Elina about iconography and paint something yourself. Every episode will highlight a new part of the iconography process, and finish with a hands-on project for you to do on your own.

In this second episode of Icon Painting for Kids you’ll say hello to Quill, learn about the creation of really big wall icons found inside churches, and will be challenged to trace a favorite icon using simple tools you might already have at home.

Elina Pelikan lives in Fuquay Varina, North Carolina, with her husband, mother, and five children and attends St Raphael of Brooklyn Orthodox Church. She leads the chanting and is working on more icons for the church walls, while running an art, theater, dance, music instruction, and performance company. Originally from California, Elina has been studying iconography from many different wonderful instructors from around the world for over twenty years. Her icons can be found in churches in Texas and North Carolina, as well as personal collections. She also works on illustration, digital design, and various other art forms.
