Festival of Tibet
Brisbane Powerhouse and Tenzin Cheogyal present
Tibetan Painting Workshop
Thu 3 - Sat 5 Feb 2011
Spend some time with master painter Karma Phuntsok and learn some simple techniques used in Tibetan Painting. The art of Karma Phuntsok is a unique and dynamic expression of contemporary Buddhist Art.
The startling beauty and richness which graces his work is influenced by his diverse life experiences: from a childhood in Tibet under Chinese oppression to life as a refugee in India; his love of life in the Australian bush, and the veneration with which he holds His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Internationally acclaimed, Karma's work is scattered throughout the world, in private collections and galleries, and in Australia at the Art Gallery of New South Wales and Queensland Art Gallery.
All proceeds from Festival of Tibet go to the Tibetan Children’s Village in Dharamsala, India, except the proceeds from the Planet// Tibet: Awakened Heart Concert, which thanks to the Tibetan Children's Village are now being directed to the Qld Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal. Proudly sponsored by Perfect Potion and supported by Brisbane Powerhouse, Australia Tibet Council, Chenrezig Institute, Dalai Lama in Australia Ltd, Tibet Information Office, and Tibetan Community Qld Inc.
