Week 46 PC Challenge ~TIBET

Well the last month of this challenge  is just around the corner.  So I'm working hard to get caught up.

 This week  the country was  Tibet. Such a struggling country- much political unrest but yet a country of such Colorfulness- Religion is so important to the country, many beautiful monasteries and monks  that wear such plain but colorful outfits-the religious ceremonies are also bright. Many people hang colorful flags for spiritual reasons around  shrines and up in the mountains. The Himalaya mountains are so amazing and a source of tourist  income  Now lets get to my card.

FRONT of CARD

This card is based on Sand paintings that many Monks make-

This is textured with  glass bead gel but can not tell it on this view.

Underneath the gel medium  was colored with colored pencils.

Correspondence:

" My Dearest Melite,

   I'm on my way home. I stopped in Tibet to attend

to some work related projects.

This country is so colorful, with all the flags flying, native costumes,

and the Monks in their colorful garb.

The Monasteries and Himalaya Mountains are so striking!

As beautiful as they are  I sense turmoil from the political unrest... 

 No updates from my Detectives.

 

Love You & Miss You!!

Alexander"
