@JDNNHH a dye is something that colors what it is placed on, while a paint is a pigment that goes on top of the surface.
a colored T shirt is dyed, because the actual fabric has been colored. A painting is painted, because the pigment has been brushed onto the canvas until you can no longer see the canvas underneath.
Easter eggs are typically dyed and not painted, but it's possible to do both.
