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.

See beautiful examples of diorama egg art. See examples from the Master Artisan Pathway ,the old IEAG Master eggs and other excellent examples of this style. Category Spotlight: Diorama Egg Art The main focus of the design will be a scene that is created within the egg; however, this can also extend around the egg. The level of detail included will be assessed, however the exterior of the egg will also be looked at in detail. Any items made by the artist should be mentioned as this will be of benefit in the assessment. The usual criteria of a well-balanced and tasteful design will also apply.
