Celebrate the coming of Spring with regional artist Mariya Blyznyuk! Guided by Blyznyuk, adult participants will explore the Drapanka egg decorating technique. This popular Ukrainian technique is the application of a pattern to a painted egg surface by scratching (grattage) with a nail, awl or tool.
In Drapanka, the egg is first painted in a dark color, and then light patterns are scratched on a dark background. Learn about the significance of different ornamental patterns in the Ukrainian folk tradition and apply them to create your easter egg designs — to enjoy throughout the spring season. Register early as spots are limited!
Mariya Blyznyuk is Ukrainian Canadian Artist, Member of The Federation of Canadian Artists and the Barrie Art Club. In 2007, Mariya came to Canada and settled in Barrie, Ontario. She has organized and owns The Green Lion Arts Studio for children and adults, teaching painting, graphics, and illustrations, on various media and using various techniques.
