I could not resist drawing this eye , the original of which, as you probably know was the subject of M.C. Escher's brilliant mind. It offered such an opportunity to practice shading and texture. How this man managed to produce such quality work using the etching, engraving or lithographic process is beyond me. As a technician he sits beside Mozart and Da Vinci in my mind - a genius!

Did you happen to catch the Escher exhibition down here in Melbourne a couple of years ago Boblines? It was FANTASTIC. Like you, Escher is one of my heros.
Well done on the drawing, nicely rendered.

Hi, I'm not aware of the M.C. Esher's ... .. . unfortunately, but I like your drawing attempt

Obviously the more time you'd spent on it the more detailed result could had be achieved.
There's minor suggestion if you don't mind - the eyelashes.
Your top and bottom eyelashes are equally long and dense
*You know what I did?
I have enjoyed drawing whiskers lately (on my free hand cat study) and consciousnessly have had drawn fewer on the cat's chin as well

Eyes are so dog gonned important. Sometimes it seems that good eyes can make or break a drawing. This is a good study of the composition of the eye that you will probably see in all your future drawings that have eyes.
