ICON Madonna2 My first ICON was The HOLY FACE, which won the Religioous Prize of LAS. I was then inspired to continue with images of the Madonna and of other saints. The Icon is the exact opposite of an Idol. An idol attracts attention to itself, The Icon always points beyond what is painted. It is a doorway, a window into heaven and reveals some of the glory that is to be. The word ICON, is Greek and means "image". An Icon reveals an inner truth and makes a theological statement about the two worlds in which we live: the outer, visible, conscious, material world, and the inner, invisible, unconscious, spiritual world. In truth these two worlds are one, and of this truth the Icon is a sign. Icons have a traditional style with some modifications added by the artist. This Icon of the Madonna 2 is surrounded by a bespoke frame with colored glass beads embedded in it. The figure is aglow with a halo decorated (not painted on) with pale blue gems and small “diamonds”. The robe is laced with a silver edge and decorated with more gems resembling rubies. The frame is embedded with coloured glass beads and is part of the overall composition of the Icon painting. This small ICON is a little gem in itself . It emanates a mystic glow in any space it occupies.

"The artist Irena Grant-Koch has a background in the arts having trained at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music in her youth. Her work has a wonderful and personal sense of colour and composition. There is a strong sense of an organic connection with her feeling for paint and her understanding of music. The feeling for balance and design is instinctive and almost classical. Her work consists of multitudes of rich layers of complementary and harmonious colours that are rubbed back and glowing through from underneath one-another. The effect is richly evocative: a tapestry of colour and texture in paint..." Leoni Duff - artist
