Artist's Comments

... was the first sentence in the Fountainhead -- an excellent book by Ayn Rand.


----
Rand wasn't a fallibilist, but I am; so please give critique on the stamp's design.

If it's a sentence, shouldn't it have a full stop? also I can't make out what the background is, but that might be unimportant/difficult to get a bg that does show up at that size.

I am an atheist right-wing British moral-objectivist with a distain for feminism, environmentalism and communism and a taste for vicious satire, cheap coffee, Karl Popper and Ayn Rand. Wherever you're from, whatever your ideas, I'm something you hate.

I tried with a full stop. I wanted there to be a full stop. But alas, it made the stamp unbalanced and look bad. But hey, it's just a stamp: the book isn't in all-caps, either.

The background is unimportant. It happens to be the cover of the Fountainhead but very dimmed.

I like it.
It's simple and clean.
And it gives it another meaning in and of itself.

^_^ <3 Fountain head. I'm still reading but from what i hear it's fabulous.
I'm using your stamp by the way.

Howard Moon: This better be good.

My absolute favorite book! It's so great to see a stamp design for it!

I think having the front book cover image in the background really suits the piece; and the quote, albeit simple, really gives those who know Roark, an insight to who he is.

All in all, I think it's a very good job.

Pain reveals itself in many forms and gravity; how the strain is dealt with, determines the strength of its contenter.

I think this font suits, because it's modern (sans-serif), practical (easy to read) and... strong? What sort of font did you have in mind?

Have you read Atlas Shrugged? I'm just reading it now. It's awesome so far -- great to read after the Fountainhead, because you already understand some of the ideas behind it.

Thank you for the comments. :)
