Mr. Andrejev was able to emigrate to the United States in 1980 and currently lives in New York State. He has written a larger number of icons which can be seen in many churches and homes throughout America and the world. He has been teaching iconography in North America for more than fifteen years, and during this time, a growing number of students have been introduced to this ancient Christian art. Over the years, Mr. Andrejev's iconographic technique and teaching method have undergone development and, and to a fair degree, standardization. As a result, a distinct "school" of painting and interpretation has evolved, one which strives to be a continuation of the ancient Russian-Byzantine tradition as well as a further step in its living development. Consequently, Mr. Andrejev, his two sons, and handful of his students have recently begun to organize in a more official manner all the aspects of this school. Upon being named, the School has received the blessing of Archbishop Peter of New York and New Jersey, and the approval of Metropolitan Theodosius (of all America and Canada).    For more information on the Prosopn School:  Prosopon School of Iconology
