It is said that as long as pysanky (Ukrainian Easter eggs) are being made somewhere in the world, the balance between good and evil is maintained. This blog is a record of my own contributions to saving the world from evil.

Wheat with Swallows
My own design.
Interesting note -- the swallow is the only bird shown flying on pysanky... traditionally, birds are drawn at rest, as seen on "Bird with Leafy Sprig" and "Firebird".
On this egg:
Wheat: good, bountiful harvest
Flower: good will and charity
Swallow: the coming of spring
Cross: crucifixion
Triangles: trinity
Diamonds: knowledge
Final color blue: truth, good health, and fidelity
