According to tradition, Joanna recovered the head of Saint John the Forerunner after Herodias had disposed of it. She is commemorated on June 27 and on the Sunday of the Myrrh-bearing Women.

My handpainted icons are made from natural materials that constantly interact with their environment. These above materials are sensitive to extreme light, heat and humidity.
Handling the icons should also be done cautiously; oils from our hands can stain their shiny surface. Dust can softly be removed with a pure white cloth.
Following the above simple instructions will guarantee that your icon will age gracefully through time and will be enjoyed by the generations to come.
