Escher was a individual artist. He incorporated the fantasy of Monet, the logic and precision of Michaelangelo, the perspective and three dimensional vision of Wright, and the patterns of the Moors, into his own woodcuts, lithographs, and drawings. He created impossible worlds and outlandish creatures.

Mis ideas están basadas en mi asombro y admiración por las leyes contenidas en el mundo que nos rodea. Quien se maravilla

de algo, toma conciencia de algo maravilloso.
