As Dawa’s family has moved into a newly-built house last November, Lhagod the eldest child undertakes the work of painting murals and interior decoration.
Living in Gongkar County of southeast Tibet’s Lhoka Prefecture, Dawa’s family now possesses a two-storey building of nearly 300 square meters.
29-year-old Lhagod is the eldest child of the family, who has been studying wall painting for over 10 years and has become a skilled artisan. Every day he would keep working for 6 to 7 hours, however, he never feels tired since he loves the handicraft so much.
Tibetans are fastidious about the decoration of houses. Auspicious patterns and motifs are always painted on the interior walls for decoration, good luck and happiness.
