Welcome to the Qinghai Regong Art and Culture Foundation

Regong Art Foundation
Tangka
Tangkas are an intergral part
of the Tibetan Buddhism and culture. The Tangka is art from
a living culture and customs that date back to over a thousand
years.
With strict accordance to
tradition the eyes are drawn on each diety and buddha on by
the eminent Lama. Each Tangka is painted in accordance with
strict guide lines using only natural elements. The Eminent
Living Buddha recites sultras in accordance with the diety
or Buddha that is on the Tangka thus emboding it its blessings
and spirit of prayer. In Chinese and tradition this is known
as "kai gang'.
All of the Tangka from the
Regong Foundation are individually painted masterpieces and
not mass produced. Each one is done by one of the 30 master
painters and all are blessed. You cannot buy one or take one
home, each Tangka is given to the individual and you invite
it into your life. We ask that you support our foundation
with its endeavor and with a donation and you will receive
a Tangka from us.
The Tangka's size are 30cm wide
by 45cm tall. The base material is made of hand
woven silk and only natural elements are used for
coloring. All works presented to our sponsors and
supporters are recorded and are one of a kind. Each
one is individually blessed by the Living Budda
with your wishes in our heart and minds.
These are masterpieces and original
as such are very rare. There are many imitations
being sold or touted. Please contact us for an original
from our foundation. The proceeds go to helping
the Tibetans and our goals of spreading the heritage
of Regong art.
