Born in 1987 into a thangka painting family in Xigaze, Konchok Je is the fifth-generation heir of his family's artistic legacy. Starting at the age of seven, he has spent decades refining his skills in line drawing, shading, and coloring. Over the years, he has painted murals at Gadong Monastery and created works such as "Flower and Vase" and "Scenery of Gang Rinpoche", revitalizing ancient thangka and mural techniques for a new era.
