Painted between March 15th and August 15th, 2011. Based on location sketches Phil made at Sabu Monastery in Ladakh where he and his wife stayed for several weeks at the Tibetan Refugee Community of Chhoglamsar. The painting explores our tendency to carry, through life, the unneeded baggage of religious doctrine.
