<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Natasha, post: 238727, member: 3724&quot;]Hello,</p><p><br /></p><p>I was not sure where to put this thread because it does not relate to any of the topics here. So, I decided to put it in this section. </p><p>I am talking now about Ukrainian pysanka, that is Easter eggs made of real empty eggs. I meant to load the information before Easter but did not have time. </p><p>Anyway, Happy Easter to everybody and some information.</p><p>During the Easter season I visited a master class on making pysanky (this Ukrainian word is not translated but used as it is). The art of creating pysanky in this area has been known since pagan times. During the Soviets it was forbidden, yet people in villages practiced it secretly. After Ukrainian independence it started reviving. Each region has its own design, colors, and techniques and experts can tell where the pysanka comes from.</p><p>For those who are interested in making pysanky I can tell you more but not here. Also, I have a few tutorial books. They are in Ukrainian but with detailed step by step pictures, so it is easy to follow the instructions. And it is just a pleasure to see thousands picturesque designs. </p><p>For now, I just want to show a few pictures. Enjoy......</p><p>[ATTACH=full]72724[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]72725[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]72726[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
