• PYSANKY EGGS

Pysanky eggs were once a common tradition in the Ukraine. Decorated with a stylus ("kystka") patterns are drawn with melted wax then placed into progressively darker dyes with new patterns drawn on each layer. After the last dye, wax is melted off to reveal the eggs' brilliant colors. Shala is a graphic designer at the University of Kansas.
