писанка

Egg hunts are proof that your children can find things when they really want to.

For Art Thursday, we have pysanky (Ukrainian Easter eggs). I'm posting it early in case it inspires you to make your own!


A pysanka is decorated with traditional Ukrainian folk designs using a wax-resist method. The word pysanka comes from the verb pysaty, "to write" or "to inscribe," as the designs are not painted on, but written (inscribed) with beeswax. (Wikipedia)

Mix of traditional Ukrainian, diasporan and original pysanky
