She has been busy, recently, making pysanki ... eggs decorated in a distinctive manner with unusual ornamentation. Mrs. Finkbeiner first applies beeswax to fresh white eggs in predesigned patterns with a stylus. The eggs are then dipped in successive baths of dye beginning with the lightest shades of yellow, orange and red and ending with dark colors of purple, wine or black. After each dipping, wax is painted over the area where the preceding color is to remain. Gradually the pattern of lines and colors emerges into something fit for a jeweller's window. Pysanky are an expression of joy in the Resurrection and are given to friends as token of love and respect, and with wishes of many years of good health and happiness. Some of these special eggs are saved from year to year like symbolic heirlooms, and are a superb expression of the artistic ability of the Ukrainian people.
