I love etching really dark eggs - there's something fun about working in just one color and vinegar.

Self-taught Ukrainian artist Kateryna Vasylivna Bilokur’s serene portrait depicts a light-skin young woman in a light blue embroidered blouse, adorned with a beaded necklace, holding a bouquet of wildflowers against a soft blue background of blossoming branches. The blues create a cool, dreamy atmosphere, emphasizing a contemplative nature. The combination of the woman, her clothing, and the flowers suggests a connection to nature and a feeling of springtime.

Bilokur was born to a peasant family in 1900 in Bohdanivka, Ukraine. From early childhood, she was told that her destiny was to marry, have kids, care for the house, and work in the field. Bilokur’s desire to become an artist was unprecedented and perceived by her parents as dangerous.

When she was 6, her father bought her an alphabet book. By the end of the week, Bilokur learned how to read and memorized the entire book. Impressed by such progress, her parents decided there was no need for her to go to school. At 24, she applied to the Myrhorod Professional School of Artistic Ceramics and, later, to Kyiv Theatrical Professional School. She was rejected both times due to a lack of primary education. As Bilokur later wrote: “My primary, secondary, and high education ended with two alphabet books.”

As a youth, she drew art multiple times, but her parents always destroyed her work and beat her as punishment. Her desire to paint didn’t go away, no matter how much they tried. At 17, her parents demanded she choose a husband. She asked each suitor one question: “Will you allow me to paint?” They either laughed at her for being stupid or got angry that she would bring them shame. Not a single man agreed to let her paint. She never married.

At 34, a suicide attempt by Bilokur finally persuaded her parents to allocate a tiny room for art. However, they remained disapproving of it for the rest of their lives and viewed their daughter as a “failure.” By 1951, she was celebrated as a People's Artist of Ukraine.

A coworker of mine accidentally outted herself as a fan of the Last Unicorn when she was young. Since I usually get eggs from her chickens, I figure I'd return one to her as a thank you.

More eggs from a while ago - one is a scale pattern, and the other two are on brown eggs. One, just playing with colors, but the other inspired more off of Trypillian pottery designs and colors.

Another egg - practicing some fishnets on this one. Trying to get my hand steadier with each egg.

Some more recent eggs. I keep joking that the first one captured the essence of an Arizona Iced Tea can.

Testing out some new dye colors I got - seeing how potent it is, does it take to the egg shell well, etc.

"The last unicorn lived in a lilac wood, and it lived all alone."

Pysanky vaguely inspired by the opening line from the novel, The Last Unicorn.
