Fall Pysanky - Friday, Oct. 16
with Nancy Rhoades
Pysanky (pronounced “PIH-sahn-keh”) is a fascinating traditional Ukrainian egg-decorating technique passed down through generations since pagan times. Simple to intricate designs are applied to an egg with melted beeswax, then the egg is dipped into progressively darker-colored dyes. A multi-layered pattern results that is revealed when the wax is melted off at the end. This wax-resist style of decorated egg is one of Ukraine's national symbols.
In this workshop, you will learn to make these beautiful eggs yourself! You will be provided with examples, direct instruction and support as well as all the tools and materials needed to design and create your own pysanky.
This class will have a fall theme, including seasonal motifs of holidays and nature.
Instructor Nancy Rhoades is a retired teacher with a lifetime of creative experience. The craft of Pysanky is a joy to teach, and Nancy is delighted to have the opportunity from CCC to share this particularly beautiful folk art with you.
