Color Schemes

I'm still doing Pysanky eggs.  I know some tried and true color schemes and it gives me pleasure to make them again and again.  However, there are times when I want to try something different.  If I stick to book patterns, I know the color scheme is going to work together well.  Last night I did an egg with basic foundation lines in white and then built up with turquoise and finally brick.  It isn't dramatic like red and black but it is actually very pleasing.  I'll probably post a picture of it on Flickr in a day or two.

    It really isn't hard to do the designs on the eggs. I have a book of designs, and I draw it on the egg in pencil first. It just takes practice and I never get it perfect but it's pleasing. Imperfections make it more special.
