"Anybody can do
this. Most people are
good at doodling, but a
big piece of white pa-
per intimidates them,"
Mrs. Johnson said. "But
you get a small egg,
and before you know it,
you have something re-
ally interesting.
"Eggs are naturally
interesting to work on,"
experimenting with
more exotic eggs, she
said. "Some swan eggs
are a light blue or a
soft fleshtone, and an
emu egg is like a small
avocado with a rough
texture. Then there are
finch eggs that are no
bigger than the top por-
tion of your little fin-
ger."
She even uses wooden
eggs because "I worry
about my designs get-
ting broken. I keep
finding different things
to branch out into."
