Preparing for Easter

There is a beautiful tradition in Hungary at Easter, the egg painting. There are special patterns of various area of the country. My miniature versions are not so detailed and fine as teh original pieces of the hungarian folk art, but it was the best I could do. I used very thin brush, number 000. Diameter of the bowl is 23 mm.

I have always been fascinated with these eggs in life size, but, to see them so tiny, is just divine. :)

Since childhood I have been enchanted by pysanky art ... and when I see what you've done with your miniature version I'm even more enchanted. How ever in the world could have possibly done such fine painting! I think I need a bowl of these myself!

Bozse, your eggs are the most amazing Easter eggs I have ever seen! Many years ago I made some pysanky eggs.... but I cannot imagine trying in 1:12 !!! They are amazing!
