Encaustic Icons

Each icon on this page was painted by Philip Davydov. Some of them have been already purchased and now they are only available in a printed versions. We can make can upload a photo of any of our icons to www.pixels.com for a print on demand if you wish to commission a print. Here is our current collection www.pixels.com

If you decide to commission a new icon, it will be different, as we do not produce copies. The new icons are really new, - the energy and inspiration of finding a new solution is the main driver of our work. If you are interested in checking what egg-tempera icons we have available for the moment, you can see them on a special page.
