Reptiling Escher Digital Print 2015

This work is an homage to the artist M.C. Escher. It is a rendering of a 1943 Escher self-portrait using shapes based on a tessellation of reptiles he created in 1939 and that was featured in his work Reptiles, also created in 1943. The reptiles in this work vary in thickness proportionally to the underlying image darkness.
