Don't get too close to the monitor, still got a hacking cough :roll:

Well, could never do Escher justice with what he saw and what he did. I guess he's my hero in the art world, a mathematical genius even though he didn't know it. His progress through his life has always fascinated me and what he ended up with. Makes you wonder what might have been if time allowed.

Anyway, used the flaming pear flexify filters for the blocks which is very much Escher for one of his works. distorted and used the perspective controls on that to lay it down. Cut out a fly blowing a bubble and added that at different angles and sizes. Finally added shadows to the blocks and the flies. All Photoimpact work.

All the best arty folks :D
