After all of the good sites I have garnered from this list...I decided never
to do my own search again until I asked what sites you folks have found to
be helpful...I Bookmarked the Henry Moore site. I am going to try the panty
hose sculpture (maybe---less expenive than what I had planned to do) and
would like to know if any of you have found/used sites with sculptures by
Jean (Juan?) Arp or Dubuffey (sp?). Hope you all can tell who I mean. Have
you used any other good Henry Moore sites. I will start searching myself in
a couple weeks. I will post them all to the list for all of the "panty hose"
people (OK others too). Where is Joseph? Got any good ones?

Did anyone else still need the Escher/tessellation list? Here is the list I
sent to those who requested (some of the tessellation sites are "old
friends"--and have been posted to the list before):

Quotes by M. C. Escher
http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Quotations/Escher.html

What I give form to in daylight is only one per cent of what I have seen in
darkness.
Quoted in D MacHale, Comic Sections (Dublin 1993)
By keenly confronting the enigmas that surround us, and by considering and
analysing the observations that I have made, I ended up in the domain of
mathematics, Although I am absolutely without training in the exact
sciences, I often seem to have more in common with mathematicians than with
my fellow artists.
Quoted in E Maor, To infinity and beyond (Princeton 1991)
