Ye-shes m'tsorgyal the Tibetan Wisdom Dakini
BUDDHIST AMERICAN FOLK ART STAMPS

Jnanasagara, or Sea Wisdom, is the Sanskrit designation
of Ye-shes m'tsorgyal, the famous female teacher of Tibet.
She was the consort of Padme Sambhava, a major teacher of
Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Ye-shes m'tsorgyal's book, 'Dakini
Teachings' was published a few years back by Shambhala Books
of Boulder, Colorado, U.S.A.

This sheet of twenty-one cyberstamps give us a good example
of the type of color and textural variations possible in the
digital medium. This block of eight stamps shows the detail of the
selvage design.

I have created stamps from Shambhala Nor since the year 2000.
Below is a sample design. See more stamps from Shambhala Nor
on the links below.

The art in the Jnanasagara stamp sheet is an example of modern art that I have dubbed 'Digital Fauvism.'
