- Introduction and contemporary reflections on iconography, spirituality, and technique.
- Highlighting folds on full-length figures, including black and white renderings of draped legs, arms, and torsos.
- Architectural and landscape renderings in Byzantine iconography, including background shadow and highlighting techniques, plus inverse perspective.
- Festal icons, involving multiple figures, landscapes, architecture, furniture, vegetation, and animals.
- Construction of heads, figures, and analysis of whole compositions, sacred geometry and proportion.
