Artist's Comments

One of the illustrations for 'Telling Tales', a collection of the school's creative writing, which I edited, illustrated and presented. This drawing was used as an illustration for a poem about, well, a dragon. The style was inspired by various sculptures by Hap Henriksen.

Reminds me strongly of an Escher piece [link] . I wonder if Hap Henriksen was directly inspired by that Escher piece, or if perhaps they both drew inspiration from a prior artist?

I'm not sure. I suspect both artists were inspired by a prior representation of a dragon - a manuscript, perhaps. But Escher has been a big influence on me too (there are a few tessellations, patterns and metamorphoses knocking about in my gallery).
By the way, how would you feel about a "tessellation tennis match"? By that, I mean that one of us starts by posting a tessellation pattern. The next artist must show a picture with that tessellation along one side, but slowly morphing into another pattern along the opposite edge. We then simply continue offering morphs of the pattern, until one person gives up. Sort of like a volley in tennis, or like one of Escher's lengthy tessellation morph banners.

I'd even create a special gallery for the images, at tessellations.org
