Description This impossible tessellation isn't my invention. My nephew Gery Krehbiel designed it and I drew it. Gery is an Escher and a dragon enthusiast, perhaps I had a bad influence on him when he was growing up. I gave him this piece of art: [link] as a birthday present.

Thanks Oz!

Your tile based on hexagons [link] is a very nicely done impossible tessellation.

Oh, wait, scratch that. I see it now. It was small even on my TV, so I couldn't make out the hook, but I get it now.
