Easter Egg Hunt In The Lisa Ng Paintings (Edited April 2019)

Turns out, I like to paint a lot of Easter Eggs. This was not intentional, I didn't even notice until someone else pointed it out actually. I'm not even sure if they meant Easter Eggs, as in hidden messages in general (because I do a lot of that too) or if they literally meant Easter Eggs. Anyway, I combed through my 200+ painting catalog, available at www.lisangart.com and am updating this most currently, April 2019 (I had to add another 5 eggs since the original blogpost) and counted for a total of 23 Easter Eggs! This is not including the ones replicated in my 100th painting in which the details get sorta hairy because now I can't remember which 100 paintings were in my first 100. I guess only the owner of my 100th will ever know..

I went hunting and as far as I know, only 9 of my 200+ paintings contain Easter eggs (answers below). I went with any unhatched egg since technically they're all painted anyway. The first one was painted in 2009 and the most recent, 2018. I got close in my 2016 painting of birds shitting in a room but opted for the nesting bird instead.  If you happen to find any I missed, please let me know! Everybody wants my eggs.
