Worth repeating

Jan 15, 2012 03:14


I just said all this, verbatim, over on FB. But the blood is singing in my veins, and I must repeat it here:

I sat down, later than anticipated, for an evening of pysankarstvo. My plan was to assembly-line write three eggs: game hen, duck, and goose. I got all the sketching done, and laid down the first wax on the two smaller shells, and then started the first wax on the goose shell.

It took over; I could not work any more on the others, but was compelled to write the rest of that egg. It insisted on being a Trypillian, and swirly. And I had no choice but to keep writing that one. So spake the muse.

I did not have the night of pysankarstvo I expected; I had a better one. Pics eventually, but not tonight. This one gets varnished, before it ever sees a camera.

Not sure how I'm going to sleep, now.
