Some Simpler, Traditional Designs

"Six Roses" Division

Variation on the "Saddlebags" Division with a Plant Motif

This division breaks the pysanka up into eight triangular sections, "eight triangles."

All of these pysanky appear in Elyjiw's Sixty Score of Easter Eggs.

Horse at Pasture

Based on a pysanky featured in Eggs Beautiful. This is a traditional design with many variations.

Acid-Etched Stars (Olive Chicken Egg)

Based on a design by Taras Horodetsky.

Geometrical Goose Egg with Swallows

My own design.

Churches

Traditional division with church motif.

Wildflowers and Wheat

My own design inspired by a saddlebags pysanka featured in Eggs Beautiful.

Hutsul Fish

Adapted from two different (but similar) fish pysanky in  Elyjiw's Sixty Score of Easter Eggs.
