good people and you can go along the same road with them, you can work with them and understand that they will never sell you, probably more than grateful. uh, i don't regret a single thing, why, because i'm here on this. belarus, i took place. how i am today. i never feel foreigners here.

when you're all at work, wherever you go you think? how about what to do next? when especially, if there is a lot of time, that is, from morning to evening, some kind of hard work. if you spend a little time, then maybe maybe some other things are distracting, but the first is simple, the setting. you can think about anything. yes, but the setting is a prayer. already prayed somewhere, the temple came to the icons and venerated. and in general, as it is written , it is customary to pray before work known to be very good, the setting. you have already tuned in to work on a letter and start a profession, in principle, it is not written. there is an artist. there is

a craftsman. yes, and the state, i could not imagine that my sister could work in the temple. well, for him it was something beyond. well, everyone already considers it natural and normal. how would such a profession here. t, but for the number of residents, uh, minsk, it’s clear that there is more of this way of life, they told me that there are such unofficial ones that i came to work by this time and finished it, this is the one i needed and i can finish at nine o’clock in the evening 6:00 p.m. and when i'm inspired, well, you already have to look there , and it happens at such a certain time that there is such a thing when the coating is on. e icons are coated, there are many hours of coating, drying oil, and then. sometimes at night you have to stay to look at how it is, and how

the talifs are absorbed. that is, we do not have lucky, we have natural drying oil, how about how to use ancient cane painters? it's hard for you to be in the workshop alone. well, even if you're in the company, but it's sitting, painstaking work. you must sit still. and you have to do it carefully, that is, not all of the character is enough for such an activity, of course, uh, all the different everyday affairs do not absorb a person and need a little bit of yourself from time to time. still pull out a little to rise on the material life of any person. it is necessary to look at life differently on the other hand , from a different angle.

two icons of the intercession of the most holy trinity are the icon from which the iconostasis began. we came here in 2005 for the first time in minsk. i was still learning how to make earrings. haven't finished yet. and so, uh, i was offered to paint the icon of the intercession. i agreed. time passed. and i thought that, probably, other people would already be working on this iconostasis, when vladyka philaret headed the belarusian church, and he said who started it. let's continue the first row of thought. so it will be on one side of the iconostasis. it will be reverend. earrings-life on the other

hand, conostasis is the life of st. seraphim. we worked for quite a long time since we wrote together, then it took us somewhere 10 years quietly with interruptions. maybe some traditionally, like the russians, the iconostasis was formed, so we started writing from the first row. the first row is usually a free row. this is hmm, well, as the abbot deigns, there will be such plots, but always there must be an icon in honor of the mother of god of the savior from the right of the savior. eh, who? eh? the temple is named, this is the intercession church, and therefore the protection of the mother of god, e, is present in this iconostasis. this wing was alexandra's. and this wing. this is the may part, that is, this is seraphim of sarov, this is the royal family - this is the angel leading john the baptist to the desert for the second row, it is huge and there is an icon two

meters somewhere around 20 cm. that is, it is not every temple has such huge icons, they are really large so you can’t write, you need to put special ladders there and so, like my partner. she is short. she said, it’s not my icons that are so big , i’m not very handy to write to me, and she left it to me all this row that you see, except for one icon, money is rubbing for us sergey lavra wrote. ah, all the rest of the icons are, uh, my work. but the third row is the holidays. here are the holidays. this is already on alexander wrote. when i look at the icons, i no longer have the feeling that you are written by me. i can watch as a spectator and as a person just praying for icon.

it’s interesting not even not people who are not professionals, but simply , but parishioners who say that the stasah sets them up for a state of prayer, that they were in different churches and saw different icons, and uh, we are told that they like these images. they are the ones that cause some kind of peace and tranquility and a feeling of some kind of presence of god. well, traditional , they are traditional, these are their icons, can you also meet andrei rublev? uh, here are other russian economists, that is, we relied on traditions and people from this separate work. himself comes to some more integral state more hmm collected here, perhaps, such criteria.

our secret is very simple. we just know how to communicate on normal parity e relationships to determine our position and develop tools to strengthen our society, your ability to convey your thoughts. this is one more drop that sharpens the stone and which creates not only the international system, but it shows what it should be in the future, but no external influence. it can't be productive if there is internal unity, if people are confident in the future, if they have stability to keep. develop increase we have our backbone which we have not lost in 92 years. we have not scattered it around

, perhaps because we have chosen a specific course objectively . so many factors influence its development and it is important to be in good shape to accept verified making political efforts. it's nice to talk about new project ideas. talk about cooperation, but, unfortunately, our country is surrounded not only by creative arial. so it turns out that some people are weird and others pay, keeping in mind our economic interests, but if we globally participate in the formation of space. or if you want a new world pole with equal cooperation and a self-sufficient market , the main broadcast project. watch on belarus 24 tv channel

. she constantly came to the city with us. she lived there was not a single temple in the countryside and sometimes she came to the city, especially big holidays and always went to the temple, but we didn’t go, we didn’t go, maybe from childhood. i knew the prayer of our father there. but i didn’t know anything else and my grandfather died and i had to order a funeral service there, and somehow we quietly began to walk. and here are some holidays, uh, i was interested, in fact, and then they began to print in magazines. proverbs of solomon and something from the old testament and i read it, and it to me

somehow really touched my heart. here is some wisdom, some depth of this text. i really liked it, and therefore this is the church. she attracted me with some other beauty, and worship with aesthetics, probably, uh, as an artist, this is important. this is the space of the m-th temple, uh, and the paintings and removed the decorations of the icon. it's all very, probably, so it fell on my soul. and when i entered the first course. i decided that i would definitely find out everything and read everything. someone what is this orthodox faith? and what is it the essence, but to study the basics, as it were, and i went to sunday school with the children, when i came to sign up they told me, who are you signing up for? i say it. i want to

study myself. and, well, as if people were surprised that, well, i'm an adult, but i say, i don't know anything, so i need to learn something, uh, something to read that you recommended, and i became with to walk as children when i was studying at the university, then, it seems , they even offered me to stay in the workshop to write to draw my thesis. i had such a screen for baptism. she is painting on fabric was. and that is , the frame was stretched, they cut me in the workshop, just there very talented things the carver was in vitebsk , he did not cut the frame, and i painted two sidewalls for me. these were some kind of ornaments, and the center was a baptism. well, it's how it was meant to be. uh, like a screen that covers a little. here is the font , protecting it like this. it was the ninety-sixth year.

many of us in the group already went to the temple, and we had several works specifically intended for the temple. and even guys they painted an icon, that is, for that time it was something unheard of. we had a priest present at the defense of diplomas. i really wanted to study at the academy after university, maybe to finish art either in st. petersburg or in minsk , that is, to continue my studies somehow. as a painter, one st. he says, why is e a painter better than an icon painter - this is somehow developing very much now and the st. sergius lavra, the best school, will be in demand. now i have started collecting documents. i found out what documents are needed. i started some work to do iconography. i entered for the fourth time, but i entered why, because i left sh-teaching. that is after university. i also taught for 4 years. i

left teaching and went to sergiev posad to a workshop. so, when i was in the workshop, i worked, i also went to additional courses at the tikhonov institute. i already understood what kind of work i needed for admission, and i began to actively work on them. and in belarus it would be for me. i realized that it would be very difficult for me when you already understand that you entered. this is an unusual joy, the education that was the previous artistic. it helped me a lot, that is, working with paints. and these relationships are color and pattern. it all came in handy, then it was not at all difficult for me, for example, the course is gaining from the guys. the girls have their own teacher. eh, teacher. everything, of course, with some small, uh, works, it all began

gradually, not that we immediately began to paint icons there, we will make an emulsion for paints. so we take an egg, we need to separate the yolk from protein. i separate everything and then white wine is added. this, by the way, is an italian tradition, but in russia they used kvass, sour kvass, somewhere. i add one by one and i even add a few drops of lavender. some like it, others don't, but i like it. it's like an antiseptic. that is, this emusia does not deteriorate. now we will grind some paint lapis lazuli is afghan there is baikal if oil paint is a pigment with oil. uh, for example, watercolor is a homeo arabica pigment, that is,

a soluble glue. that's at egg pace pigmented emulsions. the lapped chime is also lapped. in order for them to have such a hitch, you can rub it not on glass, but on a stone. well, marble can be rubbed, so i take a spatula. i usually collect with a palette knife, but i saw how you can collect a large amount of paint at once with a spatula very quickly , quite a lot of layers. we must put. this is vadim. like a layer there, like gouache. for example, it

seems to look like gouache, but still it is a slightly different paint and very transparent layers are obtained, well, due to this, but then the paint is gaining volume. it seems to have a little from the board of such an invoice. here pskov icon painting is characterized by the fact that there are a lot of emulsions and it seems that the paints on the glass are such a huge amount of paints. when you write, uh, you put an icon into your energy and work . you sit quietly there, drawing, uh, writing, and even this one smelled of french perfume, smelled of roast. this is belarusian oil, but it cannot be that there is a residential building, and there is oil right under him. no, it can’t be in the forest, only the girl’s barrier, but if it doesn’t wash off

tomorrow, we can’t smear our feet. why do i need to score dressed? i scored. i scored the boy come to us with one desire is to work, we have no homework. this is what we are trying to teach them. that's what you can tell me. that's it, watch a good satchel with svetlana borovskaya on our tv channel. in which the main success factor is not strength, but knowledge of which country the famous tennis player djokovic represents at the davis cup absolutely true questions from the world of sports. what is the name of the element of equipment that protects the head of the athletes, they will receive points for the wrong loss of their

athlete, who in 2020 was recognized as the second year of tennis player of the year. igor arena sobolyanka certainly, what will you play with him as a sports hero? decipher the abbreviation bfg. belarusian federation, handball, watch the intellectual sports show heading on belarus 24 tv channel . the beginning of the year and everyone says that this is a wooden temple. no, he was the simplest block

he will clean it up, but it’s so good to be in it to pray such chamber services that, in principle, the hand didn’t rise to take it apart, on the contrary , they repaired it, and our iconostasis was plywood. and when i say that we are changing the iconostasis, how they change it to stas is the same. there was also an iconostasis. so accustomed already to plywood reproductions. there were people, uh, who bought icons for the temple. well, just like that, two athonite icons were a gift. this is the mother of god of the savior and we decided that, probably, we will put a vykanaz here. here, a the rest must already be added on the background in greece, they wanted to order constance in full, and i wrote the savior in advance, also in this style, and the commission came to sleep. there, well,

there were also secular people. it’s just that they decided to order someone else, or i’ll still write. well, i figured i could probably do it. i think this is a big task in general. here i had a task, as it is written and the artist is, well, not to break out of the limits of this style. that is , these are greek icons, greek monks wrote and it was necessary to keep this style, leakey. that's why he had to look at these photos more and, uh, reconsider his current map. eh, some little sketches to do to compare. uh, something suited all the human factors. it still affects even in this, although they say that here it is necessary to be distracted from oneself and generally write. according to the canons, there is no such thing in icon painting at all. matekan, there is a concept of tradition

traditionally so it is customary to write. so we noticed that even icon painters, when they paint their saints. they look like them portrait data is being read for some reason. i once wrote epiphany, there are angels standing lord, john the baptist, just now the feast of epiphany, all the angels, they say, all tanya, they all look like me. although you don’t specifically stream for this, because he understands you are your own hands. you see many faces there, you see, and since this is not a copied work. and you, as it were , write from your inner state, therefore, yes, somewhere you repeat to yourself and the growth of the same growth, those who are small, they will write a reduced figure. i always write high. here's to me like high. well, because the check says, and the program of the iconostasis itself. this is our pastor. there is even what the rector wants

, or some parish of the temple or some saints revered. eh, over time , such a system was developed that there is a royal door. on which e on them they can, since the liturgy is celebrated and m-m. hierarchs can be depicted there, or evangelists. here, but it's like another impossible. here there are several options. there is chosen and usually on the one hand on the left hand of the mother of god on the right savior, this is already a constant, as we have a temple, e built here. there was an appearance at the sources of he and the mother of god, therefore, they took such two thematic compositions, one appearance of the mother of god e, which, as if with a rod, points to the source, punches the source e against the background. here. uh, the second composition is the appearance of the archangel michael here.

here is a miracle, where the source also leaked, and well , these are such large compositions, and i, well, as i will depict them later, and the top of the second row - this is the jesus row we call the entrance to the kingdom of heaven. so let's say while standing the savior, when you write an image, it doesn’t matter, but such a prayerful one. uh should be tuned to an image, because uh is both an expression and hmm the image itself. it will be so, it turns out some kind of your inner mood. how calm are you there, balanced, or do you have a lot of problems. you are distracted by thoughts. here i am when i'm at work, i can't listen or watch anything. listen, yes. here, i need complete silence, then complete concentration goes to work on the image. that's yes of course, uh, as far as the most economist of his domestic

world, anyway, he goes to work, because he is an icon painter is impossible. that's how to be an unbelieving person. uh, living a secular life is not at all adhering to church traditions. well, it won't work, so it won't be the mystery that is needed for you , the sense of reality is changing. that is, it helps, as it were, prayerful fellowship. here is such a hmm function, here i am talking all the time about our florensky, such was such a theologian. he always compared an icon to a window. the window gives light to the icon, as it were, also a window to another world. here another sense of reality. scars of the holy intercession church, when i worked here, i realized that this is the place where i want to stay and work. that is, i say, i am

in my place, absolutely in my place. this is some kind of god's presence and such a providence. no matter how difficult the feeling that you are in your place, but it does not leave. we have a pastor. he treats us like professionals and consults with us based on the conscience of each person and on professionalism. so here's my boss. it's just extraordinary. and this not just a house. this is family. this is thanks, of course, to the rector, who makes it possible to form such a person in a family atmosphere. eh, homemade. here is a fellowship of helping each other. i really love these grains. this is the church of the intercession, our complex. the same holidays are also epiphany , these extraordinary services. eh, this is the effect of the icon and the hymn and

the divine service itself. this is all beauty. it certainly inspires a person. here it gives some such detachment of energy for life. that's
