Greetings,

I am very interested in the art of M.C. Escher and have written 
a Quick Basic Program to help draw the interlocking figures.  You
know M.C. Escher right?  He is the one who has done drawings of
interlocking figures such as two flocks of birds flying in 
different directions with each bird exactly fitting into the others
like a jig-saw puzzle.

The program that I have written allows one to do the duplications 
and rotations automatically making this type of drawing much 
easier . . .  and a lot of fun.

WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR - is a shareware drawing program (preferably 
in basic) that I could add the routines to do Escher like drawings.
Does anyone know of a shareware drawing program and source that I
might be able to adapt?


Thanks in advance.
