Gilding and painting of Buddha statues
Carmen Mensink can paint and gild your Buddha statues according to Tibetan-Buddhist tradition. Traditionally, on a bronze Buddha statue the face is painted (one rarely paints the complete statue), and this is done with pure gold and pigments. Here are a few examples of the Buddha statues painted by Carmen. Click on the image to see the name of the particular Buddha and click again to read more about the deity and the way it was painted.

Having this statue for many years already I finally decided to have it gilded and painted. I found out that Carmen is offering this service so I contacted her by mail. She quickly and happily replied that she could help me out. She did a wonderful job and even fixed the chest and arm that were a bit discoulored. I’m really happy with the result, enjoying the beautiful gaze from my cushion. It makes a great difference!

Carmen did wonderful work. The faces are even more intensive now. They have more charisma.
Due to an accident the faces of six Buddha statues needed to be gilded and painted.

Carmen did wonderful work. The faces are even more intensive now. They have more charisma.
It is not only the professional work that should be highlightend here but also the very good communication and the mindfullness in the process, for example working on them on auspicious days.
I can only fully recommend Carmen and her work. It was a pleasure and the results are outstanding.
