  • Biography/Intro
    I am a 24-year-old mechanical engineer and polymath from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. In addition to my day job I am an inventor, Art Deco artist, published fiction author, and craftsman.
  • Experience with Objectivism
    I was introduced to Objectivism by my roommate, who commissioned me to paint a series of 7 posters depicting the complete works of Ayn Rand. In preparation for this I read all her fiction works as well as a few essay collections. I am a member of Students for Liberty and have attended their national conference in Washington DC.

  1. He was my roommate actually, the same person who first introduced me to Objectivism. Unfortunately, the originals are displayed privately in his Toronto home. The "Rockefeller Centre Atlas" image was a separate commission, and is also displayed privately at the client's home in Mississippi.
  2. Hello! I'm the creator of those covers; I have just joined the forum at Leonor's suggestion. If anyone is interested, prints of those covers are available not only on DeviantArt but also through my etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/DecoEchoes. You can even buy the original vector files, if you prefer to get them printed yourself. Since only objectivists will likely buy them, I am not overly concerned about anyone violating copyright . I would actually have to agree with Reidy about the We the Living cover; it is a bit too blatant. However, this is because all my Ayn Rand designs were originally done as hand-painted canvas posters, not book covers. I had a few more abstract concepts, but the client who commissioned the posters insisted on my depicting the final scene from the book.
