As I said, IANAL (I am not a lawyer).  I just want people to be aware.

To keep on the safe side, I suggest you contact The M.C. Escher Company. 
I /think/ that you would be ok, though.

Sounds like someone on their legal staff doesn't know how the Internet 
works.

I had a go at 'Relativity' years ago, but I don't think I have any good results
of that online.
I made a 'Double Planetoid' a while back, here's the most complete version that
it got to:
http://www.infradead.org/~wmp/gallery5/planetoid_day.jpg
I'm kind of on/off developing a 'Tetrahedral Planetoid' at the moment, posted an
initial example last year:

id.jpg

Quite different from the originals, I took the concepts only. Otherwise, just
lots of idle tinkering :)

Following your suggestions I've sent an email to mcescher.com, I'll let you know
their reply.

Bill Pragnell> You're a real veteran in term of Escher's reproduction !! ;-) I
like your works and the ones you've chosen. Others interesting me are "Balcony"
and "Print Gallery". But I would already be happy if I can complete only but one
in my lifetime.

Balcony seems feasible, with some patience for the architecture.
Print Gallery - good luck! :D

The reply from mcescher.com was:

Dear Ms. Baillehache,

Your computer art really looks nice! Please enjoy it with your friends and
family!

With kind regards,

Mark Veldhuysen

So, I'll consider myself safe to keep on tinkering for fun with his artworks.
