Not Eggsactly Something You See Everyday
A little follow-up on my pysanky post. I joined the Yahoo Group Eggs-Psyanky and am getting all sorts of pointers and wonderful links. Most of those in this group are true artists, and it's a wonder to behold their work.
Some of the artists had pysanky eggs in the White House Easter Egg Collection. You can can view them State by State. To see previous years, just change the year in the web address. The Texas egg which is featured is done pysanky style. The eggs are just breathtakingly beautiful!
One of the artists also shared the art she has done with tiny eggs, like finch and canary. Note the rosary; it's simply exquisite! Here's a closeup.

The Rosary is beautiful! But it is beaded, not pysanky? Do they glue the gems on I wonder? I've never really thought about how to stick something onto an egg before! Thanks for linking, Jenn!

Oops, yes, the rosary is beaded, not pysanky, but still incredible! She says once the chain and beading are on the egg and the shell is treated it's very durable.

Absolutely wonderful eggs, Jenn. Can we be expecting one of yours to appear there in the near future?

What beautiful work! I love the Texas Easter egg with the bluebonnets. FYI and for the record (i.e. accountability) - I just put the St. Anthony's in an envelope. Hopefull I'll put it in the mail Mon or Tues.
