Iconography
Hand-Chased Metal icons
crafted to last generations
It is a privilege to create traditional Christian iconography in hammered metal using the ancient art of chasing and repoussé.
Beginning with a flat sheet of semi-precious metal, I raise original or historical compositions into luminous images of Christ and the Saints, one hammer blow at a time.
Made to endure for centuries indoors or outdoors, these icons are offered with the hope of blessing the faith of families, parishes and monasteries for generations to come.
“Beautiful and sensible. I love how you capture the icon in a way that is both traditional and surprising.”
“The icon Evan crafted for us has been a source of beauty and comfort in our home. God’s light shines through his work.”
“Anybody who is considering an icon commission with Evan will find that he will exceed your expectations in every way. ”
