I am an American iconographer and liturgical designer based in Austin, Texas. As a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, and a second-generation church designer, I have over 25 years of experience designing church architecture. In 2019 I completed the 3-year Icon Painting Programme with The King's Foundation School of Traditional Arts in the U.K., studying under Aidan Hart. I also previously studied with Vladimir Grygorenko in Dallas. I am a tonsured reader at my parish of St. John Orthodox Church in Cedar Park, Texas where I attend with my three glorious children.
I am now accepting commissions for Church design projects, icon panels, and wall paintings. If you would like to discuss a potential project, or simply say 'hello,' please use the email form on the contact page.
I ask for your prayers,
Baker
I make icons for my generation – in that we are psychologically complicated, troubled, ashamed, and insecure. We struggle to find the sobriety and courage to turn our true faces to God in faith. The Church’s icons are here to help us in this struggle.
