First Pysanka of 2025. I tested out my batiks and will create several and then do an auction to raise funds for Ukraine. I’ve been feeling the need to create. The art of resistance comes in all forms. #ukraine #pysanky #pisanka #slavaukraini #pysanka #pisanki #art #standwithukraine

Yesterday I learned that the #Vegreville #Pysanka rotates in the wind!!

#alberta

#Pysanka - a traditional decorated egg - is one of the main Ukrainian #Easter symbols and an important feature of Ukrainian #culture heritage.

The word "pysanka" comes from the verb "pysaty", to write. A tradition of making pysanky dates back to the pre-Christian era

🇺🇦artist Tetiana Konoval’s pysankas honour nation’s history. Eggs depict Kharkiv liberation, Bakhmut’s spirit, etc. Despite🇷🇺attacks, she crafts during blackouts in Kyiv shelters.

“Pysankas symbolize life, our lineage,” she says. “Victory” egg honours Armed Forces

Made another #pysanka this one combining etching with dyeing.

Happy spring to everyone in the northern hemisphere!

Photograph of a pysanka-style easter egg on its side. The color scheme is natural brown, white, black, yellow, green, and orange.

Each end of the egg is several diamond shapes, alternating between a large natural brown diamond with color in the middle and a colored diamond with natural brown in the middle. Around the center of the egg are a series of squares arranged corner-to-corner around the circumference. On either side of these squares is a band of alternating black and gray triangles with an orange highlight fading into white toward the end.

The colored portions of the diamonds on the ends are outlined in black.

Absolutely loving these #pysanky eggs, borrowed from a friend's mom, and I love how they made this spread feel so springy and festive.

A horizontal image of a spring flatlay consisting of pysanky eggs, pink and burgundy ribbons, and spring flowers. On the bottom of a low and wide open-weave slatted basket dark purple and light gradients of hellebores curve together with ballet slipper pink tulips. White squill and gypsophilia provide a lightness around the arrangement while red and black pysanky eggs nestle among the stems. Wide pink velvet ribbon leads the eye in and out of the image, entering on the left side and existing on the right.

1. Ukrainian Easter egg decoration (#Pysanka) workshop is afoot. Want to come? DM me!
2. Seeking to borrow an RJ45 crimping tool.

These gorgeous eggs were borrowed, with the exception of two that were gifted to me long ago.
Easter is far off, but the tradition of using pysanky eggs for holiday ornaments is still a practice among some people, and I love how wonderfully festive and appropriate some of these eggs are for the holidays. It's my goal in the new year to try my hand at some. For now I am enjoying photographing these to help honor this beautiful tradition that will be preserved in part with puzzles and photos- still beautiful to look at, and a fair bit less fragile for the littles, too.

Have you ever done pysanka, or do you know someone who does do it?

a natural wood plank can be seen through the rounded edges of the basket.

Wonderfully interesting update today on Ukrainian egg writing and its connections to tradition, resilience, and hope - a wonderful, short, read. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/atthisarts/embroidered-worlds/posts/3911229 #Pysanka #Ukraine #UkrainianArt #EmbroideredWorlds
