I have a wide ranging conversation with Romanian Master Iconographer Daniel Neculae. Daniel and I discuss his background, as well as some current issues that seem to be a challenge for many icon painters in our contemporary world. We also discuss some theological topics related to traditional Orthodox iconography.
