Research Artist #15: M.C. Escher

Who hasn't heard of M.C. Escher? Anyway, I've always admired the fine detail he puts in things, and the shading is beautiful. His grasp of linear perspective has always impressed me, as someone who still struggles with it. I hate drawing buildings, and the way he could draw architecture so well always made me green with envy. Whenever I try to draw buildings in a scene, Escher's work comes to mind, but I can never make it look nearly as good. I enjoy his testellations, as well.
