    You are a very patient person, Emel.

    I don't get as much of the Escher-esque directional ambiguity however.

    I am not familiar with this artist. Anybody know of a website where the work can be viewed? This is a very interesting drawing anyway and must have taken quite a lot of time. I'm not sure what Gary means by "directional ambiguity" but I can see that some of the stairways are upside down and so are the people on them.

    Emel
    You have done a wonderful job on this. I can see how M.C. Escher's work has inspired this. If you are not familiar with the work of this artist, then as you all know, I like to do my research. So I have found some links where you can find out more about M.C. Escher and his work. You can see how he inspired Emel's post.

    Oh Emel, if only I could express how fantastic I find your drawing. I love it!

    M.C. Escher has been one of my favorites since my childhood. Someday I hope to get to see some of his original drawings. That would be a real thrill!

    If anyone wants to learn more about Escher, why not visit the official M.C. Escher website put up by the exclusive representative of the M.C. Escher Copyrights. (By the way I know that M.C. Escher copyrights are agressively defended - don't post his works or they'll see you in court).

    Regards, Ross

    ... here totally stunned!. What an absolutely amazing design you have created. Did you plan the piece on paper before sitting down infront of the PC?

    Super job, emel!

    I haven't really looked at Escher's work so it was nice getting the direct links posted. I have to say that find his repeating patterns truly fascinating!

    Emel, fantastic job. I can't believe how much work must have gone into this. The work and its tone are super. Wow! Neil
