Seamless Pictures
I’ve had the picture above as my desktop wallpaper forever. It’s by Ron Gonsalves and is part of his Seamless Pictures series. It’s amazing art, with literally seamless blending of fantasy and reality in many of his pictures. I’ve been a huge M.C. Escher fan for as long as I can remember, so perhaps I was pre-conditioned to love this guy, too. Go, Browse. Be amazed. Fall in love with Ron Gonsalves.

I love Escher too! I can not believe that he never considered himself a real artist. I have a poster of Relativity hanging in my apt.
Thank you for introducing me to Ron Gonsalves! I really like what I’ve seen of his stuff so far.

Whim, yeah, he always thought of himself as a mathematician first & foremost. It astouds to realize how good he must have been with that, considering how deftly he handled his art. I have a few posters & four or five books.
Kat, they’re really fun, aren’t they!
Ms. Cass, anything you want is fine with me, ma’am!
