these beautiful eggs were handcrafted by a women that works in the kitchen at the hospital.she is from lithuania.painted easter eggs are an artform native to eastern europe.vera ,the creator of the eggs was a medical doctor before she came to this country.it is a long and arduous process to become certified here and for whatever reason she chose not to do that.
i marvel when i see her passing trays .she seems so content in her work.
a wonderful reminder that all work is dignified and that to have reliable work is a gift these days.

What gorgeous artwork...the creator is an amazing artist! Thank you for sharing her craft as well as some background of the artist. Great post, Bridget!!!
I love these pictures. Are you going to use them in the cookbook? Great reminder too about reliable work...it's a blessing!
Beautiful eggs and wonderful words, giving the artist credit for her work. I always tell my students to find work that they enjoy, it's much more important than the money or prestige.
