Icons



I have a friend of mine here at school who is Byzantine Catholic. It's awesome to have a Catholic friend from the other lung who's able to share with me insight into a vital part of the Church that is often ignored here in the West.

Anyways, I knew he paints . . . ummm, I mean, writes. . . icons and I've seen a few he has in his room which are pretty impressive, but today I discovered some pictures online of some of his work via a link on the blog of a mutual friend. These are amazing. This is the kind of hidden talent you'd never expect to find in a fourth year chemistry major!
