Testimonials of my students and pictures of their work
Through these pictures and words you will get a good idea of what to expect of my thangka courses.
Herewith a few testmonials of my USA students that came out of the -anonymous- online survey
that a student of mine sent out after last year's courses in the States.
Impact of course in own words:
'Wonderful tradition being passed on in time. An honor to participate.'
'Opened me to possibilities through Buddhism and actually was able to create meaningful art.'
'Carmen was an engaging and knowledgeable teacher.'
'It has really deepened my practice and appreciation for Tibetan art,
in a way that reading a book on the subject never has.'
'I Moved to a Higher Level.'
'Profound impact on visualization meditation.'
'Wonderful presentation of dharma.'
'Carmen is both a talented teacher and artist.'
'Love this subject. Love the feeling and sensitivity to the lines and form.'
'The aspect of the integration of dharma and the practice of Thangka drawing.
When I look at a Thangka now, I understand at a deep level what is being communicated.'
The girl on the left (Amber, 13) is my youngest student and the woman on the right (Vittoria, 83) my oldest.
Testimonals via emails:
'Hi Carmen,
Thank you for your beautiful teaching and spiritual inspiration and fun!
Much love, Marian' (USA)
'Carmen -
It was a real pleasure meeting you last night. I was really inspired by you and your way of teaching.
I stayed up until almost 1 am to finish my Buddha face - I just could not stop!
It was a surprisingly meditative experience. I really hope to be able to learn more from you
while you are here. Attached is my Buddha face. I still can't believe I created it. Thank you.
Kim.' (USA)
'It was a great weekend with wonderful people, lots of depth and inspiration.
Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful energy with us.
yours sincerely'

'Hi Carmen,
I often think of my experience in your Thangka workshop back in Oct. It was such a blessing for me.
So grateful to have met you and to have learned about Green Tara. It was very inspiring and got
me to enjoy my art again. Thanks so much.
Fondly,
Liz' (USA)
'Dear Carmen
Thanks again for our good class last night; I felt more comfortable with drawing the necessary curves,
and appreciated your advice about multi-color shading...and was so impressed with the brightness of
others' drawings. Good to meditate before and after drawing.'
