Wet Paint Artists’ Materials & Framing—Welcome Spring and awaken your senses with color, the smell of beeswax, the light of a candle and quiet sounds of kitsky on eggshell. Pysanky are Ukrainian Easter Eggs, decorated using beeswax and dyes that are applied in layers. Ukrainian Easter Egg Decorating has been handed down through generations of the Ukrainian people. They are famous the world over for their colorful Easter Eggs (Pysanky). If you have long admired the beautiful Ukrainian eggs at Justin Terlecki’s perennial demo here at Wet Paint, it’s time for you to give it try yourself!
