Creating Ukrainian Easter eggs, also known as pysanky, is an art form that has been around for centuries. This year, it means more than ever to both Olga Lang and her daughter, Dawn Lang, who have Ukrainian heritage and live in Saanich.
Creating Ukrainian Easter eggs, also known as pysanky, is an art form that has been around for centuries.
Olga taught Dawn how to create pysanka when she was just five years old. Nearly four decades later, they do it every spring."You are encouraged to train yourself to be in a state of grace, to be in a loving gratitude," said Olga from the kitchen of her home, where she was creating various beautiful pysanky.
The mother and daughter are teaching the art of creating pysanka, which involves writing messages with beeswax on eggs, on Saturday, March 25, at Christ Church Cathedral from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
