Pema Namdol Thaye is one of those rare individuals possessing the ability to master every artistic medium he explores. He is fully accomplished in traditional Buddhist icon painting, sculpting, traditional wood carving, architectural design and three-dimensional celestial model (mandala) construction. Put simply, he is an artistic genius and as acknowledgement of this was the recipient of “Alien of Extraordinary Ability in his Field of Expertise” by the U.S. Government in December 2008. Something he sees as a great honor for his years of dedication.
