Artist's Comments

Done in late 2007. It was an art class assignment in which we had to carry out in the style of M.C. Escher. I was particularly inspired by his piece "Reptiles."

Prismacolor Pencils on cardstock, scanned, then digitally enhanced in Photoshop.

Also, for those who were wondering about my current work, I'll see if I have time to do more artwork this summer. :)

I've always wanted to try doing something like this but I can't draw many things well enough yet.

This is really cool! I liek the detail you put in and the shading is incredible. They look really nice and the colors pop! I'll have to check out M.C. Escher sometime lol Great job!

Love doesn't lead to the dark side. Passion can lead to rage and fear, and can be controlled, but passion is not the same as love. Controlling your passions while being in love, that's what they should teach you to beware, but love itself will save you

that's adorable, I was wondering if you remember the paper you used for that piece, the prismacolor looks so smooth
