This is traditional Pysanky made by an expert!

As you can see this is a Pysanka, a Ukraine artwork made around Easter, but some people love it so much they do year round.

My class decided to make Pysanky eggs. This is mine the one with a blue back ground.

All colors mean something:

  • Brown represents Strength, endurance and the eternal sun.
  • Red represents happiness in life, hope,  passion, and the sun.
  • Light blue represents the sky with its life-giving air and good health.
  • Green represents Spring, new growth and
  • Black represents Eternity, and darkest time before the dawn.
  • Yellow represents light, purity, youth, happiness, and hospitality

    HI Molly.
    It is very interesting how pysankas have so many meanings by the colours it has in it.
    The blue egg is very beautiful but i think it is to colourful for my liking.
    I think your egg is even more beautiful than the experts egg.

    Bye From Eric.

      Bye~Molly
