As a member of the BAI you will receive a quarterly Review. Our Review is published for Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter and is usually at least 40 pages in length. It has interesting articles and useful information for both established iconographers and for those just starting out. UK members will have a printed copy of the Review posted to them, while overseas members can opt to either have the printed Review posted or an e-mailed version.
If you would like to join the BAI, please send an e-mail to the Membership Secretary at membership@bai.org.uk. To contact the Review editor, please e-mail: editor@bai.org.uk
As a guide for a prospective member of our Association, below is a summary of the contents for this issue (Spring 2023)
A Message from the Editor
It has been a pleasure, once again, to compile the BAI Review. As iconographers do, I pray before, during and after the process, for the Holy Spirit’s guidance – this is my ‘studio’. I am interested in all the articles you send and learn much from them. Thank you to you all. They contribute to the development of us all. We gain expert knowledge from some, enthusiasm from our beginners and inspiration from many.

In addition to encouraging knowledge of the
Orthodox practical techniques, we are very concerned to develop healthy spiritual lives. God is the Divine Creator and we pray to co-operate with Him, following His lead.
An Exhbition of BAI Member’s work is planned for the Autumn. Please see pgs5,6 and the website for details. We look forward to seeing your work and perhaps to meeting you there. Do, please, give this some attention and thought. It is hoped that it will be a splendid Exhibition of the wide variety of work that you all undertake.
In this edition there are icons of – St Anthony, Our Lady of Vladimir, St John the Baptist, St Nectarios, The Pantocrator,
The Last Supper.
Wishing you a Joyful and fulfilling time with your Icons.
With my prayers
Ann
