Tibetan Art

Recently I've been all over the map in terms of cultural artistic inspiration.Yesterday we were in Cuba, last week Burma, today Tibet. The images starting at no.5 and down are Tibetan sand mandalas ( yes, painstakingly made from colored sand) that can take several weeks to create and are traditionally destroyed shortly after completion to illustrate the Buddist belief in the impermanence of life. Absolutely incredible........
