Holy mission to carry forward Tibetan thangka

Chinaculture.org | Updated: 2010-07-14 17:10

"I treat my students as my own children and teach them how to paint thangka for free, I think it' s my destiny to carry forward this Tibetan traditional art form," said Tibetan thangka painter Norbu Sida.

"I hope more and more youngsters could fall in love with it," he added.

Norbu Sida who was born in 1967 in Xigaze, began to learn painting thangka as a nine-year-old boy. With more than 30 years of drawing experience, he has been selected as thangka successor by The Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) in 2008.

Thangka: the most wonderful pearl on the crown of Tibetan art

A Tangka (a Tibetan word meaning "silk, satin or cloth painting scroll") is created with the intention of showing a painting to the public. This art form has been brought into the first group of national list of intangible cultural heritage in 2006.

Norbu Sida sketches line drawings, which is the first step to paint a thangka.

The content of most thangkas is usually images of Buddha or a reflection of lift stories of eminent monks and folk customs. The painting methods utilize mainly bright colors and line drawings.

Norbu explained that all of the pigments are made from natural minerals. For example, the golden color is produced from gold and the green color is from turquoise. It could spend months to make these pigments with strict procedure by hand. And the colors will not fade, even for hundred years.
