There is a small art gallery on a nearby college campus that my husband and I decided to check out yesterday. They were having a visiting exhibit of tessellations by Escher. I've never really been all that intrigued by tessellations, but what the hey. This is one of Escher's more well know ones:
Usually I paint with in watercolor using very oversized brushes, but lately I've been doing a series of small pen and ink drawings. I also really enjoy image editing in GIMP on the computer. So this morning I decided to try a tessellation in GIMP.
The moral of my little tale? Take what you like and make a distraction out of it. When you're quit, your brain literally frees itself up for more of other things. Like playing!
