	As was explained by [[Igumen Vladimir (Lysak)]], who ~~previously~~ studied with him, the work of iconography in Saint George's Church began by attaching canvas to the existing walls, and then applying plaster over that. After this, all the walls were gessoed. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gesso Gesso] (chalk) is a word originating in Latin and Greek, meaning “gypsum”. Gesso is a white mixture, consisting of a binder mixed with chalk, gypsum, pigment, or any combination of these. It is used as a preparation for any number of foundations such as wood panels, canvas and sculpture, over which paint and other materials are applied. The application of gesso is very time-consuming, and it requires careful sanding so that the surface is completely smooth.
