I got some new ideas for a possible tattoo...ideas that are making me consider it seriously for the first time. Call it a theme...I don't know what image inside this theme is the one I want...but it will be something in this theme (well...possibly)

Ignore the top and bottom bit...I was thinking of an interlocking band around the arm so that it joins in on the other side.

This general concept can be applied to an endless number of Escher's patterns, this is just two of the more iconic ones. The advantage to the second one is it can be done with just 2 shades, so black and white is a more viable option.

Another idea is this set of 4 (ignore all the writing)

edit: hey...I found an example

Last is to take one of his fixed pictures (in other words, not an infinite pattern like the following (probably minus some of the extra objects around the edge like the plant, bottle, or book)
