Learn how to draw the Penrose Staircase, an impossible shape in 3D, but can be drawn in 2D!
In the Penrose Staircase the stairs look like they always go up in an endless circle, which is impossible in 3D. The trick is to draw the corners of the stairs so they always look like they are going up.
Learn to draw this optical illusion developed by Roger Penrose and made famous by the artist, M.C.Escher in his lithograph from 1960, Ascending and Descending. The Penrose Stairs are similar to the Penrose Triangle, another impossible shape by Roger Penrose, the famous British Mathematical Physicist.
The Penrose Stairs on Wikipedia:
The Penrose Stairs appear in the film Labyrinth, 1986 and the more recent movie, Inception, 2010.
