Water Fall

This is again a weak copy of another drawing created by Escher where the elements differ from the laws of gravity. This drawing shows a waterfall in which the water falls at a waterwheel and flows through an aqueduct, which starts at the base of the waterwheel, to the top of the waterfall and again falls down upon the waterwheel completing and repeating the cycle. The drawing suggests that the aqueduct is sloped downhill from the top of the waterfall to the waterwheel but the structure of the aqueduct and the way it is supported on pillars is unreal and impossible. The water is flowing upwards against the force of gravity through the aqueduct and again falling due to gravitational force.

It sure isn't easy to sketch without the use of rulers. Geometry hits me here, trying to figure out the angle of one wall to another (especially when not even one line here is either perfectly on a horizontal or a vertical plane)- PHEW !!!.

Drawing Hands

A very weak and a feeble version of one of the famous paintings by Escher. He was a Dutch graphic artist, known for his often mathematically inspired woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints. His artistic expression was created from images in his mind, rather than directly from observations and travels to other countries. Drawing Hands is a very well known example of his work in which two hands are shown, each drawing the other. I just love his imagination.
