PARAGRAPH ON MCESCHER.

McEscher created unique and fascinating works of art that explore and exhibit wide range of mathematical ideas. As his work developed, he drew great inspiration from the mathematical ideas he read about, often working directly from structures in plane and projective geometry, and eventually capturing the essence of non-euclidean geometries. He also created the Alhambra Sketch. He was also fascinated with paradox and "impossible" figures, and used an idea of Roger Penrose’s to develop many intriguing works of art. McEscher did a great deal of “tessellations,” which are arrangements of closed shapes that completely cover plane without overlapping and without leaving gaps. Well thats my paragraph about McEscher.
