pattern vs. texture

pattern

Perhaps because i'm a weaver i have problems with texture and textured surfaces. Not visual, but actual texture. Pattern comes so much more natural to me, texture is more self conscious.Many years avoiding it because i think it's the easy way to be effective in weaving have taken it's toll. Color, no problem, even blindfolded, but texture...
i'm slowly working at it and it's uphill.
Which one are you a pattern person or a texture person?

lutra-san

lutra-san

Some background first.Husband-san was trained to have an opinion. Being an architect our household is not here's- the- money -honey- now- you -go- buy- the- sofa- you- want- type of household. Most of the times we agree from the start, if we don't a long negotiation process opens.

Yesterday i was in the studio and he came in to ask me something.He stopped and picked a piece of material and asked "what do you use this for?"i started my didactic spiel and he cut in. "We use it in construction, non woven materials".UH?

i had read that Lutradur was used in construction, but never paid much attention to the fact as it is somewhat removed from my sphere, or so i thought. When i said it was a new product he giggled and told me it had been around for around 30+ years.
Here was i all this time feeling product deprived and he has had scads of it at the construction sites, in 3 or4 different thicknesses and black too!i got the spiel on the ways it is used !!

i want some. NO, I NEED SOME.
A world of abundance has just spread in front of my eyes.Let's see if i can materialise some of it :)
There's a moral to the story.Check out construction sites, they are product outlets.
