Discover the timeless art of pysanky, traditional Ukrainian egg decorating, in a welcoming and creative setting at ArtWaves. The table is prepared with everything you need—local eggs, candles, kistkas (wax-writing tools), vibrant dyes, and the sweet aroma of warm beeswax.
Through step-by-step instruction, you'll learn the basics of color layering, pattern design, and wax-resist techniques that transform ordinary eggs into intricate works of art. Experiment with traditional kistkas or try an electric version of the tool, combining methods to create designs that are uniquely your own.
Pysanky is a relaxing and meditative process of applying warm wax and dipping eggs into successive dye baths, building colorful, elaborate patterns one layer at a time. Follow traditional Ukrainian motifs or let your creativity guide you.
Perfect for individuals, families, and groups, this hands-on workshop offers a memorable artistic experience for all skill levels.
