being artistic
Mar. 18th, 2007 08:23 pmToday I learned how to do Pysanky, which is the art of coloring easter eggs, oft called Ukranian Easter Eggs. I've always been fascinated by them, and they are easier than I thought. You basically start with the egg, put some wax on it with a stylus called a kistka, and then dunk them in dye. You then put more wax in an artistic color, and put the egg in a different color dye. Repeat as desired till you have a multi colored egg of wonder. Of course if you have artistic talent (I apparently was issued a double dose of sarcasm when I was born in lieu of artistic talent) you get a better looking egg, but oh, well.
