Thank you for this information. The Erie Old Rite community has a similar iconographer. Fr. Theodore Jurewicz is a Russian Orthodox Old Rite priest and artist specializing in painting Byzantine icons and frescos at the Church of the Nativity in Erie, PA. Fr. Jurewicz is considered to be one of the most renowned iconographers in the U.S. today and has painted about a dozen Eastern Orthodox churches.

Here are some photos of his painting of the Ascension Icon in the Erie Old Rite church.

The Church of the Nativity website is really well done, thanks for the link.
They did a great job of explaining the Old Rite and I learned a lot from it.

Interesting that in the 2nd video, he says he's the only one of the Old Rite in the U.S. painting icons. Mustn't be aware of Fr. Theodore.
