Can Geometry Inspire Art Like M.C. Escher's Creations?

I came across this paper on the Geometry of M.C. Eschers work, thought I'd share the link.

Very cool! Math is art in so many ways! Fractals of course are a fan favorite!

It must be impossible not to like M.C. Escher. I like his impossible buildings. Here is my own impossible stairs.

Great perspective !
After checking out this link from the paper I mentioned, http://www.tessellations.org/tess-what.shtml I have to recommend the site. Plenty of inspiration for anyone who's interested in this art form.
