I made a few snowflake pysanky in 2007 using large white chicken eggs.  This is one set–a single pattern, but variations in color.   I tried to capture the colors of a winter sky.

I made a second set in 2008, with a different pattern, and more variation in colors, including greens and purples.  These were made by creating pastel versions of green and purple, and varying the dyeing times to get lighter and darker shades of each color.

And, of course, there is now a third version in 2009, also with variations on a single theme and utilizing pastels.
