“For we live with those retrievals from childhood </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that coalesce and echo
throughout our lives, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the way shattered pieces of glass </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in a
kaleidoscope reappear in new forms and are </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
songlike in their refrains
and rhymes, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
making up a single monologue. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We live permanently in the
recurrence of our own stories, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
whatever story we tell.”
<br /> <span style="font-size: x-small;">~ Michael Ondaatje</span></div>

It's that time of the year when the cats of CatmaSutra come out to play!
Bright, quirky, and capable of levitation, the seventh installation of
catmaSuta cat art exhibition is once again back at Utterly Art. The
seven year itch has only served to cook up more mischief as the
catmaSutra cat takes you to that sweet spot of whimsical bliss and
light-heartedness.</h3>

<span style="font-weight: normal;"> "If we stop and observe how life flows, we'll notice
how the universe is made up of individual moments which when
appreciated fully, gains a shape akin to a smile from the heart - a
personal heaven." Paul's paintings take his audience through these
moments using the cat as the perfect allegory to create a personal
space that tugs at the heartstrings!</span></h3>

Saw the city from above… lights flickering like stars. The lights are alive, indicative of lives in the city; at the same time, it’s like a tiny cell in the body, each sustaining itself unaware of the view from above. Millions of cells come together, and a radiant design unfolds into a rarefied constellation of stars. Yet, individually we do not know what to do with ourselves. The busyness of life wear us down into a tiny flicker of light consumed by consumption. The urban city has no regard for the rhythm of life; it is relentless in keeping us earth bound, our wings clipped, unable to fly or dream. If the light in my eyes fade, then my life would have been in vain.<br />

This is one of a set of catmaSutra paintings entitled "See-no-evil" or Morning Cat. As you would have guessed, part 2 and 3 (hear-no-evil {afternoon cat}, and "speak-no-evil"{evening cat}) will soon follow. The design is also available for iPhone 4, iPhone 3, iTouch 2, iTouch4. I'll probably add in the iPad versions as well so stay tuned!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy8yk2n42vVYS2clIC1Waw1tc1o2MEw90lTSD8RCzw6RG4GLDqt6GEQ5oQNaX4q_DqlSYOCEQK7jJXiLCSGYYEQTc8VVFmOvPmwGZMDybYP1fVYaZrhY8monydjrQ8mIYpvRV2ci60BtM/s1600/halo-see-no-evil.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy8yk2n42vVYS2clIC1Waw1tc1o2MEw90lTSD8RCzw6RG4GLDqt6GEQ5oQNaX4q_DqlSYOCEQK7jJXiLCSGYYEQTc8VVFmOvPmwGZMDybYP1fVYaZrhY8monydjrQ8mIYpvRV2ci60BtM/s400/halo-see-no-evil.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br />
Here's the natural inspiration of the above painting - Halo doing her "See-No-Evil" stance. I think we can learn a lot from a cat, the way it stretches, the way it seems to live its life. Maybe it's a way of slowing things down as per lifespan, they age much faster than we do; but everything is relative, if we don't take time out to enjoy stretching and doing nothing once in a while, we may indeed live to regret it!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. <br />
If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, <br />
don't we consider it his duty to escape?<br />
. . .<br />
If we value the freedom of mind and soul, <br />
if we're partisans of liberty, then it's our plain duty to escape, <br />
and to take as many people with us as we can!<br />
