I visited the premises in Boudha in person. Its not just next to the stupa like many shops but a little way away and easy to find with Googlemaps - just ask locals when you get there as they didn't have an obvious sign, at least when I visited. They have modern studios, workshops and a salesroom all in the same buildng. Bipin was very helpful and I examined several bhavacakra thankas before settling for a beautifully detailed one. The brocade was added in a day or two and the final thanka was delivered to my hotel very carefully and robustly packaged. I was very happy with the thankas I bought and very happy with the service, Definitely recommended!

Green Tara or Dolma is often known as the great liberator who rescues beings from the eight great fears aroused by Elephants, lions, snakes, robbers, fire, water, demons and the government .She is one the Bodhisattvas that Avalokiteshwora created from a drop of his tear.
In this painting Green Tara is seated in a playful posture. Her right hand is in the Varadamudra because she is quick to respond to the petitions of those who seek her aid. She is adorned with five jewels symbolizing the Dhyani Five Buddhas . In both her hands she is holding Utpala flowers, symbolizing her purity. Her color is green because her Bodhisattva activity is swift like the wind element. On the bottom part of the painting Manjushree and Vajrapani is portrayed in devotional postures. They gaze at the deity eagerly as if they are making a petition to protect the world. Buddha Aparmita is seen on the top Centre panel of the painting. The artist has placed the whole in a beautiful surrounding landscape of forest, brooks, and mountains. A light brown sky on the background has added profundity to the message of the painting.
