Original Buddha Board For those in search of the perfect holiday, bridal or house gift, the Buddha Board may be just the ticket. A playful conduit to the art of living in the moment, this combination philosophical toy / art project gently encourages the user to value the here-and-now. Paint on the board's special surface with water; the image darkens and then slowly fades away. Soon there is nothing. Create your work of art, appreciate it for what it is, and then let go and start again - it's about tapping into a part of ourselves many of us never knew existed. Doodle, practice calligraphy, make something artistic, whether or not you're an artist! You can use different brushes, a spray bottle, even your fingers.

 

The Buddha Board is a great stress reliever for your desk at work, or in the kitchen, the bedroom or your coffee table at home.

Buddha Board is environmentally friendly because it saves paper - you can use it over and over again and it will last for years, plus it is more magical and inspires more creativity.

The Buddha Board is a wonderfull gift for people of all ages.

The Buddha Board is 31 x 24 cms and comes with a bamboo paintbrush and a Japanese style water holder/stand.

HOW TO USE YOUR BUDDHA BOARD:

1. Use the plastic packaging cover as a base if you are worried about water dripping on the table surface.
2. Fill the Buddha Board stand with 1cm of water (room-temp).
3. Put the Buddha Board on the stand so that it is either horizontal or vertical, whichever you prefer, by placing the edge of the Buddha Board in the two central notches on either side of the stand. The brush rests on the impressions in the front of the Buddha Board when you are not using it.
4. You are now ready to start Buddha Boarding - dip the brush in the water and go for it! The more water that you put on the Buddha Board surface means the more time it will take for the images you create to evaporate and disappear - also, when the Buddha Board is on the stand, gravity will sometimes play a role in your artwork. If you don't like this effect simply take the Buddha Board off the stand and use it on a flat surface.
