Dates: 6 May 2024
Day/Times: Monday, 9.30am - 1.30pm ( 4 hours)
Venue: NatureArt Lab Studio, M16 Artspace, 21 Blaxland Crescent, Griffith, ACT
Learn how to create beautiful dyed eggs using a traditional Ukrainian method with botanical artist and scientist Dr Tanya Scharaschkin from Tasmania!
This promises to be something completely different for a fun activity on a Monday morning! Join our tutor Tanya to learn the 'Art of Pysanka' egg dyeing techniques from Ukraine. The word pysanka comes from the verb pysaty, "to write" or "to inscribe," as the designs are not painted on, but written (inscribed) with beeswax.
Our emphasis will be on learning the techniques to create dyed eggs, and decorating one egg with traditional Ukrainian folk patterns and designs using a wax-resist method. This will enable you to then create your own designs inspired by Australian native flowers or leaves in your own time.
