Silver Award < Back Karen Hanlon, Canada March 5, 2024 Silver Award CATEGORY: Pysanky/Batik PATHWAY: Accelerated TYPE OF EGGS: Goose This egg was done for "Pysanky for Ukraine" day, so some of its symbols were particularly chosen to represent Ukraine. It has an intricate band running halfway across the top and bottom of the egg in two directions, each ending in a fan of prayer shawls depicting wheat (Ukraine's primary export and a symbol of prosperity and hope for a good harvest). The band has the 8-pointed star with a "jewel" inside representing Christ as the treasure of Ukrainian culture. Beside the fans are pussy willows, done in great detail. These represent Palm Sunday, and are meant to show the passion (suffering) through which Ukraine is passing, and the hope of resurrection after the passion. The egg was mainly done using traditional pysanky techniques, but additional techniques were employed. There is some etching, so that the primary lines are somewhat raised. Some shading was used, particularly on the "jewels". The pussy willows were first done in grey, and then scratched at the top of each one to make them appear fuzzy and to make them grey at the bottom and white nearer to top. Previous Next

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 Learn Section (formerly known as the Resources Page) 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.

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 NEWLY RESTORED PHOTOS! 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.

Bronze Award < Back Page Davies, USA October 30, 2023 Bronze Award CATEGORY: Acid Etching PATHWAY: Traditional TYPE OF EGGS: Emu This Emu egg was inspired by my love of sea life and turtles. On the front is a hawksbill turtle. On the back is an octopus, sand dollars, coral and angel fish all free hand drawn. The band is also a freehand rolling wave. The egg was waxed, then acid etched in a 30% muriatic acid solution. This was done outside with safety goggles, mask and gloves. The egg was etched back progresseively in 5 minute intervals to reveal lighter shades of green and ultimately getting down to the white layer. Yellow accent dye was applied on the fish and red on the coral. The base keeping with the sea life theme is fossilized coral and a brittle sea star (all found by me). I entered this in acid etch category as it is more etched than traditional pysanky. Previous Next
