About this place
WorkshopKathmandu
Summary
Thangka painting schools around Boudha offer short introductory sessions where an artist walks you through the grid-based proportions of Buddhist iconography and lets you fill in a small canvas with mineral pigments. Longer courses exist for the serious; even the taster gives you a feel for why a single thangka can take months.
