| The Mother of God of the
Sign Olga Kirichenko, Lithuania. In her wonderful icon, Olga Kirichenko shows us the Virgin Mother with the face of the young woman she was when she gave birth. The Virgin's eyes seem to express everything we know about Her : her Merciful Tenderness and Goodness, her Immaculate Purity and Holiness, and her Boundless Motherly Love.

 Olga Kirichenko obtained her first artistic instruction in Kirov,
Russia. Following her graduation she continued her study in Saint Petersburg.
She started working for the Church in 1996. She is conscious of the fact that
her work with icons means the beginning of the road to spiritual peace. Like
any creative person, Olga Kirichenko has many interests. If you would like more
information, or want to discuss a project, send her an email message (see next
paragraph).
Email messages. To send an email message you can click the following link
daileninke@inbox.ru , or you can go to
the artist's website http://icon-painter.dkd.lt/, and click
her email address there (KOHTAKT).
Furthermore, since the artist cummunicates in Russian, incoming and outgoing mail settings may need to be adjusted in your email program. Here is what I did in my (Outlook Express) email program. In menu... - Click Tools, Options, Read, International Settings: uncheck "Use default encoding for all incoming messages" - Click Tools, Options, Send, International Settings: uncheck "When replying to message, always use English headers"
