Excerpt from the article 

"Nine aspiring sketchers with four members of Voluntary Artists’ Studio, Thimphu (VAST) Bhutan are on a sketch walk led by Erwin Lian at the Royal Ludrong Memorial Garden, Langjophakha, painting the Tashichhodzong in the view.
 
Erwin Lian is on his fourth visit to Bhutan. The tour was inspired by a conversation with a student when he had volunteered to teach painting in Bhutan.
 
He said: “I taught the little kids and they got very interested. Then they asked if they could make a living out of it. It made me kind of depressed after that, because after I teach someone to paint and he or she gets motivated yet cannot see real future. Real life of a painter is hard.”
 
The pilot tour is aimed at creating a market in the future, which would bring artists from around the world to Bhutan.
 
Erwin Lian said the project would provide a means to sustain the local artists through similar activities."
