Fighting Viking Art: September 2011

M.C. Escher, also known as Maurits Cornelius Escher, born June 17, 1898, was the youngest of three children. Eshcer's family encouraged him at a young age, to persue an education in Educational Arts, but it wasn't until the age of twenty-one, that he found his true interest in Graphic Art. Escher's particular style was a mix of art and math, and art and science. Escher inspired tessellations,which are designs and patterns that can fit together in a repetitive, interlocking way, that creates an illusion of a jigsaw puzzle.
