Escher

Escher is a dutch graphic artist. He is known for his mathmatical inspired lithographs, woodcuts and mezzotins.They feature construction of architecture and tessellations.


Tessellation - is when something is repeated over and over again without any gaps or overlaps.


If I had luked at escher's work earlier on before I did my codatrace for my print i would of been inspired to use his methods of tessellation to create my print.Looking at the equations that are behind how a certain image is mapped out for a print. I find escher work inspiring an maybe if I have a chance if possible I could use my screen that I have and block out certain areas to recreate a tessellation print.
