Master Egg Artists from the IEAG Master program which ceased several years ago. These artists set the standard for all future eggshell artists. Gallery of IEAG Master Program Egg Art The old IEAG Master Program was a great program that emphasized technical proficiency in order to elevate egg art to the highest level. The artist was required to pass each level in order. The levels were as follows: novice, intermediate and master level. Each category and level had very strict criteria including type of egg used. All judging was done in person. Unfortunately, the IEAG is no longer in existence. EAI would like to thank these amazing artists who set the standards for excellence for all future Master Artisans.

Our mission is to promote all types of egg art, also known as eggshell art or egg decorating worldwide. Our mission is also to raise the quality of the art to the highest level and develop public interest in the art thru education, exhibition and sharing. Join today! Our Story On January 25, 2023, Egg Art Internationa l was founded by Dr. Leslie Lisdell and Co-Founders Linda Martin and Kathy Hamilton. Dr. Lisdell, a physician by trade, had collected egg (shell) art for many years and started her own exploration into this beautiful art form in 2016. She was joined by Linda Martin, owner of Linda Martin Egg Art Designs and Kathy Hamilton, owner of the Eggery Place , to make this idea a reality. Our goal is to create an international organization dedicated to promoting egg (shell) art thru outreach, education, scholarship and promotion. On May 14, 2025, we were approved as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which will help facilitate our goals of promoting egg art, teaching and providing egg art scholarships. Our organization's website is the world's largest and most comprehensive information and educational hub for all things pertaining to egg decorating or egg art. What is egg art? It is the art or craft of decorating eggs. Some people call it egg decorating and some call it egg art. Egg art is a form of creative self-expression that involves decorating eggs with various materials, techniques, and themes. The art of decorating eggs has evolved into something separate from religious rituals, proving to be a new form of creative expression. Artists today are taking the art of decorating eggs to the next level. There are so many different styles of egg art. More common styles include pysanky, batik, carving, Fabergé style, etching and more. It is amazing there are so many different ways to make an ordinary eggshell into an exquisite piece of art! Our team has already made great progress and we have lots of exciting plans in the works. We are adding new content almost daily. Make sure to visit the Resources section where you will find suppliers, books, videos, show dates, teachers, helpful hints, patterns and more to make your own decorated eggs. From children to advanced artists there is something for everyone to enjoy and learn. Mission Vision The MISSION of our organization, Egg Art International , is to promote all types of egg art worldwide, raise the quality of the art to the highest level, and develop public interest in the art through education, exhibition, scholarships and sharing. We are committed to supporting all styles of egg artists regardless of their financial capability. As such, we do not charge for membership or the Master Artisan Pathway. We strive to make this website a source for all to learn and benefit from. Please consider donating today so that we may continue on this important mission. Our VISION at Egg Art International , is to bring awareness of all styles of egg art into current and future generations throughout the world. We seek to encourage new artists, young and old, thru education, fostering and promotion. We are currently setting up programs to introduce egg art into schools as well as other places. So many exciting things are being developed! Egg Art International , is committed to making sure your privacy is protected. We do not sell membership lists or emails and all information is strictly confidential.

MAP is a program of assessment, education, acknowlegement and certification for egg artists. The mission is to raise the level of egg art to its highest form. Master Artisan Pathway- "MAP" Important Notice: The MAP team had their semi-annual meeting, and a few updates were made to the program. There will no longer be two different pathways (accelerated and traditional). All entries will simply be judged using the same scale as always. Also, the Master Artisan and Supreme Master Artisan has been simplified. These updates are reflected below and will be effective April 1, 2024. WHAT IS MAP AND HOW TO BECOME A MASTER ARTISAN THRU THIS PROGRAM MAP is a program of assessment, education and acknowledgement (certification) which any member of EGG ART INTERNATIONAL can participate. All styles and levels of skill are encouraged to apply. The artist will have their work assessed and receive constructive criticism from our judges. Based on the scores/points received by two or more judges, the artist may receive a BRONZE (Advanced Beginner) certificate, SILVER (Intermediate Level) certificate or GOLD (Advanced Level) certificate. The minimum score to obtain the following certificates are as follows: BRONZE -70 points, SILVER- 80 points, GOLD-90 points. The maximum score is 100 points. By obtaining a GOLD certificate you will be allowed to use the title "ADVANCED LEVEL ARTISAN". Further achievements will be acknowledged by awarding the title "MASTER ARTISAN" after receiving FIVE ‘GOLD’ level certificates in any combination of the same or different styles. The ultimate title of "SUPREME MASTER ARTISAN" will be awarded after obtaining EIGHT ‘gold’ level certificates in any combination of the same or different styles. See the 2025 MAP certificates below. MISSION OF THE MAP: The mission of the Master Artisan Pathway (MAP) is to raise the level of egg art to its highest form thru education, assessment and acknowledgement. BENEFITS OF THE MAP: MAP is a way of being able to get help in perfecting a technique by having your work looked at by experienced judges who are being selected to help you to achieve your full potential. MAP certification can be used as an aid to develop your career within egg art, either as a teacher or someone who sells their work to the public. A MAP certification can be displayed alongside your work or on your resumé giving added kudos to your status within the world of egg art. MAP is a forward-looking program which will encompass all styles of egg art. HOW TO APPLY Judging will take place, almost exclusively, through photographic submissions, a widely acknowledged method. It is essential that you read the photo submission criteria provided below. However, some eggs require ‘in person’ assessment due to technique or difficulty in providing a clear image. Photos will still be required for ‘in person’ judging. Complete the online application form (one form per individual entry) and include a minimum of six photos of your entry, labelled front, back, left side, right side, top and bottom (additional photos showing the interior or other details can also be included.). All names should be removed from the photos and any signature on the egg should be covered over. If you are unsure of the correct category to use or have any question, contact us. Once a complete entry has been submitted our policy is to have a response in 29 days or less. Please note if an entry is submitted without following the guidelines you will be asked to resubmit it. DISQUALIFICATIONS: Eggs or artists will be disqualified from the Master Artisan Pathway for the following reasons: Egg must be a real egg. The egg is from a seminar or instruction kit. The design is by another artist. Vulgar or lewd eggs Depiction of violence of any sort. Unprofessional, demeaning, bullying behavior towards other artists or their works. OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION: We strongly recommend that you limit posting your MAP entry on social media before submitting as it may cause a bias towards your entry. We strive to maintain strict confidentiality and our judges will decline to judge if they have seen the egg before. Also, eggs more than 5 years old are discouraged from MAP participation due to deterioration in materials and diminishing educational benefits. PREPARATION OF IMAGES FOR MAP JUDGING-Please read carefully so your entry will not be rejected. A. Introduction: Preparation of images for digital competition is somewhat different to preparation for printing. See the Image Preparation steps required below. If you shoot in JPEG or start with a JPEG image (filename extension .jpg) to create an image for submittal, you should always start from the same original un-edited image to create that competition image. Every time you edit a JPEG image and store it, you lose detail because of the file compression that is executed during the file storage process your computer executes. Keep a copy of the original JPEG file in a safe place (another folder or hard disk) where it will not be altered as you edit the working copy for competition. B. Image Preparation: All items below are mandatory for images you submit. 1. Sharpen the images to taste if your image editing software supports sharpening and you wish to do so. 2. Save the images in JPEG format limiting file size to 2 MB and using the naming specified below. 3. Submit the JPEG images only as specified: You are required to submit a minimum of 6 photos as outlined below. There are 2 optional views allowed. We recommend a photo with a different background as this will be used in the website gallery. If the egg opens an image of the inside must be added and labelled ‘inside’. If the egg has mechanical movement a video no longer than 10 seconds in length will be required. TOTAL MB allowed per application is 25MB. a. Name the file images as follows: Front, Back, Left Side, Right Side, Top and Bottom. b. Photos must not be labelled with a name or show a name. c. The background must be plain white or plain black without glare. Do not edit out the background. d. Take the pictures at eye level for the front, back and sides. The top photo must be taken from above looking straight down. The bottom photo must show the bottom of the art work. You will need to hold the piece up in order to obtain this view. Read the below tips. C. Helpful Tips for photographing artwork for digital submissions. Rev. 2-20-2025.Please note revisions will occur periodically. Egg Art is a changing art with new materials, styles, equipment etc. We reserve the right to update as needed to improve the program or reflect these changes. Always read thru all the information before submitting an egg to ensure you are in compliance with any changes. Other Tips for the perfect photo
