Fiber Artist Inspired by Nature

Catherine Dawson’s creations in fabric art, prints, and quilts are in museums and private collections nationally. She appears in the prestigious listing of National Quilt Artists. Catherine’s work is “all inspired by the landscape near my home and studio in Red Beach where I have lived and worked for over 35 years.” Her primary medium is fiber arts using cotton and silks that she has dyed, pieced, quilted and embroidered to create contemporary abstract and representational pieces. Additional medium includes watercolor on paper and stone, relief and collograph prints, needlepoint, and Ukrainian eggs. Catherine’s images intend to evoke either meditative contemplation or exuberant and whimsical joy.
