Wow.... incredible photos! I especially love the one carved out of wood. The detailing is exquisite. Right down to the minute detail of the ornaments, the facial features, the tail of the snow lion, the wonderful image of Je Tsongkhapa and the many jewels on the lotus spewed forth from the mongoose.
How meritorious to be able to create such an image of The King. It is said that creating images of Buddha, be it carving, painting, sculpturing or being involved with any of the processes, is perfect for purifying negative body karma!!!
I rejoice for this “artiste” and may his pieces of art continue to inspire and may many get to enjoy such beauty. I wish to get one for myself… I wonder where I can get one!!!?
