Well i like most art...MC Escher, being a favorite
M.C. Escher was a Dutch graphic artist, most recognized for spatial illusions, impossible buildings, repeating geometric patterns (tessellations). Born in 1898 and died in 1972. He didn't consider himself an artist or mathematician. In Escher's work what you see the first time isn't all there is to see.....The first time i ever heard about him was in college, i had a poster that was really cool, but i cant find it on the web anywhere, i think it was a take off on Escher's "Reptiles" but it had the JOB or J<>B papier trademark in it if i recall...anyway here are a couple of "Real" M.C. Escher's...not sure what the 1st one is called, the 2nd one is Another World III, then Drawing Hands, and the last is the Reptile one. Now i think Bobby would like these!...
