20th Century Dog Art

Seems famous Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher (1898-1972), known for his intricate impossible contsructions, started out with more simple shapes like this dog tessellation (a geometric design of identical interlocking shapes) from 1938.

See more cool dog tessellations on Rita's Dog Blog, a lovely blog written by a dog with great taste in art.

It would, Regan. Click on Rita’s dog blog to see other cool examples of this. Although, I think Escher is not surprisingly the master. I like his best.
