Tessellation by M.C. Escher
Sixth Grade Art Students are learning about the art of M.C. Escher.  Escher's work was greatly influenced by the art of Islamic Tiles which he saw at the Alhambra Mosque while visiting Spain.  The Islamic Tiles were non-figural but Escher's work portrayed many types of fanciful characters.
