Dave- Thanks for clearing up a mystery for me; I had never been able to find out from whom Bishop JOB had learned.
Pani Rose- I teach an intensive one week class. Students must commit to spending a good part of each day to complete an icon, usually around 8 hours a day. We begin Sunday after Divine Liturgy, when Bishop John Michael blesses my fledgling iconographers, and if all goes well the icons are ready for varnishing Saturday morning, and are blessed at the Sunday Liturgy.
