The Ukrainian word “pysanky” can be translated to “writing”, and this art form involves writing on real eggs with wax and dipping them in deep, rich dyes. This wax relief method, similar to batik, creates extraordinary designs and magnificent works of art.
A Class for Adults and Teens

Learn the ancient Ukrainian art of decorating eggs, or pysanky, in this class with Karin Turer. You’ll learn how to use wax-resist to draw meaningful symbols on real eggs, and use deep, rich dyes to create joyful designs that speak to you. Class fee of $25pp includes all materials. Pysanky kits, dyes, and tools also available for purchase.

Karin has been creating pysanky since age 8, when her mother passed along the hobby to her. Although at heart she loves the intricate traditional pysanky designs, she’s always excited to add personal touches such as mockingbirds and loons or backhoes and firetrucks for her now 7-year old son. She has been teaching friends for years and is excited to share her craft with more people.
