[re]emergence: Imperfection
http://iy-am.blogspot.com/2013/01/imperfection.html
Design concept. © Catherine V. Bainbridge 2013. One of the things that I have always loved about hand-worked repeat patterns, is the way in which the natural irregularities - the imperfections - make a repeat pattern not a repeat pattern anymore. Even though it still is. And I think that's the quality that appeals so much to me in so many world cloth/stitch traditions. Design concept. © Catherine V. Bainbridge 2013.

[re]emergence: Rice Moon
http://iy-am.blogspot.com/2013/01/rice-moon.html
Tuesday night the tide was low at 6 o'clock. Flashlights in hand, we stumbled out across the rocks. There were lobsters. Brittle starfish. And we saw the head of an eel poking out from a crevice under a rock, opening and closing its mouth, with small, needle-sharp teeth. I got a creepy feeling. Of wading in the warm waters in the dark. We went back to the shore and sat for an hour, sky-gazing. A fabulous comet - or suchlike - flashed across the heavens, with a streaming orange tail. I will soon be 42.

Sunday, 24 October 2010. Just before I went to bed last night, I poked my head out of the back door to look at the rain. Didn't think it would work, but I took these photos. A cocktail dress strung with silver sequins? Tom Waits - A little rain. My daisy cloth soaking up a brief moment of early morning sun. Catherine V. Bainbridge. Labels: a little rain. Saturday, 23 October 2010. This week I was touched by Karen's. Creative questioning (and, BTW, Karen has moved here. Which is so true! And I frequesntly...

Emergence: December 2009
http://littlelightshining.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, 28 December 2009. Rough and (almost) ready. I've continued to work on the "catcher" cloth (bag) over christmas and am pleased. and a little surprised by. where that took me. The front panel is done, all hand stitched, and uses only reclaimed cloth. Now I just need to complete the body construction and add straps. I love that this piece has no straight lines and is so rough and ready. Catherine V. Bainbridge. Thursday, 24 December 2009. Where do ideas come from exactly? So I didn't do. This is as ...

Some more daily sketches. that turned out not. To be daily, of course. Some days several. and other days none at all! I got up at 4:35am (usually do) and had the idea of.

About the itinerant artist. A wandering artist's journey. Asymp; 1 Comment. I never cease to be amazed about the world of possibilities that open up by way of the information I stumble across on the internet. I’ve had some time over the last few days to think about and digest the wealth of information and provocation delivered via the Wovember. Blog These thoughts have flowed across a diverse range of subjects, activities, some reminiscences and I’ve also had a bit of an awakening too. Larr; Previous post.

Walking in the rock pools with Nilo. Some are like clay. And some covered with all kinds of life. I have no idea what this strange creature might be, but surely it's a relative of the Trilobite? About 3 inches long. and yes, alive! I'm tired of only having the camera on my phone. I'm tired. Full stop. Catherine V. Bainbridge. Links to this post. I wonder if a mould or an insect made these gorgeous patterns? Catherine V. Bainbridge. Links to this post. Or this exquisite gift! This is what we left behind us.

Flame flowers of "Malinche" ( Delonix regia). And with cashew nut pods ( Anacardium occidentale. Catherine V. Bainbridge. Links to this post. Following on from yesterday's post. I uncovered a secret. The way that the shadows move around in my house. Origins. A screen window, with a wooden lattice. Sometimes the shadows and sunlight match to enhance the checkerboard, and sometimes they don't. Diamond becoming elipse. Square becoming circle. The faux-lace cuff of a blouse. This last image is for Neki.
