Sonam Tshering

Born 1955, from Thimphu

I am a retired banker who first started painting as a favourite pastime since my school days. I am a self-taught painter and my paintings mostly depict landscapes and the bounties of nature as a way to express my lifelong love and concern for nature. Nature, its light and colours, mountains, winding rivers, lush green valleys, fields and forests have always been a great source of inspiration for me. Over the years, such a meaningful engagement has proven to be a natural healing process, thus attributing to greater inner peace of mind and happiness in my life.
