Loveis a great pover!

Natalia Ruda

I was born into this wonderful world in autumn, when harvest is being reaped, on the 23rd of September in 1979. My first cries were heard at dawn, and the whole space greeted me with cheerful music, opposite to the maternity hospital, a wedding was being celebrated, a new family was being formed there. And I was born in the picturesque village of Beregomet, Vyzhnytsia district, Chernivtsi region. I live in the cozy Bukovyna town of Storozhynets, Chernivtsi region. I lived in love in a wonderful family, my parents were teaching me, my brother and sister to love our native land, our traditions, and life. While still studying at school, she fell in love with Easter eggs and learned this sacred art from a craftswoman. In 1994 - 1997 I was studying at the Storozhynets Forestry College, majoring in accounting. In 1999 created a family with Ruslan Rudyi, gave birth to two sons, Dmytro and Pavlo, who grew up in the atmosphere of Easter eggs and are involved in this art themselves. In 2000-2003 I was studying at Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University at the Faculty of Economics, majoring in "Accounting and Auditing". The first education was economic, after which I had been successfully working for 18 years, later an irresistible desire to create appeared. I was writing Easter eggs and mastered painting icons and oil paintings on my own. In order to inspire people to the possibility of creating beauty themselves, I held personal exhibitions with my mother Olena and sister Halyna: "From the Family Source" in 2016, "The Light of the Easter Egg" in 2019. and others. I am also constantly teaching, conducting master classes on writing Easter eggs for both adults and children. In 2019-2020 at Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University I received a master's degree in labor training and technologies. Currently, I work at the Storozhynets Lyceum Support Institution as a labor training teacher, where I teach children to create beauty, believe in their strength, develop their potential and love our Ukraine, our traditions, culture and life. Together with my sister Halyna, we are the initiators of the creation and annual celebration of World Pysanka(Easter Egg) Day on the 9th of April. This day is not tied to any state or religious holiday. Its purpose is to share our treasure, which has reached us through all ages, with the whole world with all those willing to learn how to write an Easter egg and live in harmony and love more…
