Beside
ship-modeling, he makes icons from
HILANDAR GRAPHIC corps - a specific
technique of engraved glass where
icons are made in such way that they
are truly transmitted on glass by a
diamond needle.
After complete engravement, a silver
color is inserted into glass which
gives contrast to all cut. He makes
icons with that procedure since
1989. and so far it represents a
unique category in icon making.
No one in the world does such
technique of icon making, because it
is very intense and it has to be
done with a mask on the face.
He has a positive
opinion of Serbian Orthodox Church
for his work, and exposition in
2001. in Central Club of VJ, under
the name of *SVETI RATNICI* has been
blessed by His Holiness Patriarch of
Serbia, Mr. Pavle.
He displayed
several times, both independent and on group
expositions.

Unique wall clocks are made in combined
technique of graved glass and contour
paste. Motives on clocks are
constellations on the sky, where the
central one is made with contour paste,
while the vicinity is engraved.
Clocks are made also with different
motives, which depends of artistic
vision and inspiration in that moment.
But the majority are naval
motives. |
