Although I am familiar with Buddhist thought, Buddhist art has always felt a bit cryptic and foreign to me. I was extremely happy to find this workshop where I got a first glimpse of the thought process and methods behind Buddhist art.
The pairing of lecture and drawing was very helpful as it explained that historically the drawings had a practical purpose and that every element has meaning, it is not just a drawing for decoration.
I was very happy with every part of the workshop. Along with her expertise Carmen brought great energy to the class.
