About our Banner
The Sky Dancing banner headline uses a snippet from a work by artist Tashi Mannox called 'Rainbow Study'. The work is described as a" study of typical Tibetan rainbow clouds, that feature in Thanka painting, temple decoration and silk brocades". dakinikat was immediately drawn to the image when trying to find stylized Tibetan Clouds to represent Sky Dancing. It is probably because Tashi's practice is similar to her own. His updated take on the clouds that fill the collection of traditional thankas is quite special.
You can find his work at his website by clicking on his logo below. He is also a calligraphy artist that uses important vajrayana syllables. We encourage you to visit his on line studio.

I didn’t know today was special. Happy Birthday, JJ!!!!
This is fabulous. Thank you all so much.
How are you celebrating?
I had some kick ass Cuban food…my family actually sat down together and ate it at the table. It was wonderful. Then my mom and I watched back to back Peter Lorre and Sidney Greenstreet movies.
Happy, Happy Birthday JJ…….

Happy Birthday, JJ!
Happy NBirthday, JJ!!!!!!!!!
NBirthday? That would be Birthday, if I could type. May you have a wonderful year!
I thought that stood for her mysterious age.
Happy Birthday JJ. I got you a Mexican dog.
😉 Is it hissing?
No but it has a rather long nose, small beady eyes that turn red at night, and it tends to travel along the perimeter of a room. Still, he was a great buy.
Happy Birthday, JJ.
Live long and prosper.
Happy Birthday, JJ.
All the best to you!
And many mooore!
Thank you so much, I love my Sky Dancing family!
