Pysanky 101 - How to Make Ukrainian Easter Eggs (Tutorial for Beginners) + Tour of My Pysanky

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Ever wonder how on earth Ukrainian Easter eggs are made? If so, stick around for this video as I’ve created this beginner’s guide to creating beautiful Ukrainian Pysanky. I learned this ancient folk art as a child and over the years, I’ve made dozens and dozens of Pysanky. I’ll first take you through some of my collection and share with you a brief overview of the art and the meaning behind some of the traditional symbols. I’ll also share the items you’ll need to get started with links below if you’re interested in giving it a try. I close with a DIY tutorial for beginners on how to create a Ukrainian Pysanky.

    I'm a 76 year old dude and have never tried to do this art of Pysanky egg-decorating but tomorrow will be my first time to join a group to learn the art of decorating. I'm very excited and I have committed myself to perform well and enjoy the magic Pysanky egg decorating brings. Thank you for the Tutorial. You're an awesome instructor.

    I use silk ties to transfer some fancy patterns to eggs each year. A friend recommended I check out your video and try this technique. Fascinating artwork. Not sure I can draw well enough to do it, but maybe. I am a math oriented person, and there is a lot of symmetry here. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creations.

    I'm new to Pysanky, but am very intrigued by the art form. I am signed up soon for an in-depth training class on how to do it, so this video was extremely helpful to help me have an idea of what I'm going to learn. Can't wait and fingers crossed that this is something I'll be able to do outside of the class.

I also just bought an electric kistka and I'm having much better success with that. No more wax clumps and it writes so even! Thank you for posting, I really enjoyed watching! I have found that this is a great stress reliever and I will be doing eggs all year round.
