Nick Ververis, a 24 year old icon painter from Salonika now in Middletown, is commissioned by Sts Constantine and Eleni Greek Orthodox Church at 2500 Grand Ave. to create a large icon covering 748 square feet behind the altar. He will prime the oval area 34 by 22 feet, then sketch with charcoal and pencil before oils, aiming to finish in about three months.
