edinburgh school of icon painting

Our school supports students in developing creative confidence and finding courage through a range of icon painting courses and workshops open to students at all levels. Edinburgh School of Icon Painting was founded in September 2013. It is a small school based in the artist hub St. Margaret's House. The school mission is to teach icon painting (writing) to people of all different backgrounds but at the same time maintaining the ethos and essence of it's spirituality. Introducing this unique form of art to students of the school I introduce a way of practising art which is different the other forms of art and it is said to be more then just art. Students learn egg tempera technique which has been used in art for centuries and it is one of the most lasting painting techniques. There are still reasonably well preserved icons from VI Century. Egg tempera involves preparing own paints using egg yolk and dry pigments. Through the whole process of work we try to limit synthetic materials. Using organic materials helps to develop a connection with nature and in consequence with the Divine. Basia Mindewicz - founder and teacher. Born in 1978.

Melt two thirds of the butter over medium heat, add flour and stir until combined, and continue to stir and cook for a few minutes. Add half a litre of hot stock (I usually use hot water and chicken or vegetable stock cube) little by little, stirring well after each addition to make surer the water is blended thoroughly into the butter and flour mixture , this way avoiding lumps. However, since this is a smooth, blended soup, if you do end up with lumps don’t panic, they will be gone by the end. Cook the soup for a few minutes while washing and chopping your ramson leaves. Add them to the soup, allow to simmer briefly (just a minute; colour and flavour are best when the leaves are barely cooked). Take the pot off the heat and puree the soup until smooth and velvety (it’s easiest with a submersion blender, but a food processor is fine too). Add cream, the rest of the hot stock and the remaining cold butter and salt and pepper to taste, and blend until frothy. This is a light and foamy soup showcasing the delicate spring time flavour of young wild garlic. Pour immediately into cappuccino cups and decorate with drawings in the pale green foam, a sprinkling of gutweed powder, and a few wild garlic flowers if desired. Serve the soup with a savoury biscuit or crouton for a cute and tasty touch..
