Must have!,
By Chris (Montreal, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tibetan Thangka Painting: Methods & Materials (Paperback)
This book is a must have for anyone interested in ancient Tibetan art and culture. It penetrates deep in to the tradition and lore involved in the creation of Thangkas.It's even great on a technical level, giving us grids and proportion when painting Buddhas. The authors even explains how to create the pigments with authentic materials; as well as telling us where in the world to find them. Indispensible resource.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The Ultimate How to book of Thangka Painting,
By Gerry Gatz (Brattleboro, Vermont USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tibetan Thangka Painting: Methods & Materials (Paperback)
This book assumes an interest in Thangka paintings. The book then proceeds to elaborate, step by step and in great detail, the process of creating one of these art works from the grinding of the color pigments to the finishing details with a brocade frame. If you are interested in this art form you couldn't ask for a better guide. Well written and thoroughly complete, it also includes drawings of any and every detail found in these paintings. If you are interested in creating a Thangka painting of your own this is the book for you.
