Welcome to the Aidan Hart website

Aidan Hart, an ordained Reader of the Greek Orthodox Church living in Britain, has been a professional icon painter and carver for over twenty-five years. He has works in more than twenty countries of the world and in many cathedrals and monasteries.

His aim, in accordance with the Byzantine icon tradition, is to make liturgical art that manifests the world transfigured in Christ.

For inspiration he draws in particular on the Byzantine, Russian and Romanesque icon traditions.
We hope that you enjoy looking at the icon painting and carving illustrated on this website. If you are interested in discussing a work that you would like Aidan to make for you, or just want to ask a question, please don’t hesitate to contact him.

As you will see, he works in a variety of iconographic mediums – carving and fresco as well as panel icons – and also lectures, teaches and writes. So we hope that he and his growing team of fellow craftsmen will be able to meet your needs.
