Einstein
Prints available for sale!
This "Paper Genius" collage celebrates Albert Einstein, the famous physicist who forever changed the world with his theory of general relativity and his E=mc^2 equation. This collage shows a black and white photograph of a man alone, signifying his single-handed struggle to weave the threads of gravity, energy, light, mass, and time into a tapestry called the general theory of relativity...
Tesla
Prints available for sale!
Who was the man who wanted to bring light to the world and tamed the mysterious force of Alternating Current (AC) electricity? That man's name is Nikola Tesla. Many believe that Thomas Edison was the only inventor to work with electricity, not true! Tesla invented the alternating current (AC) induction motor and other related inventions, which Westinghouse Electric licensed and purchased...

Schrödinger
This "Paper Genius" celebrates the work of Erwin Schrödinger. Schrödinger was a Nobel Prize-winning physicist who was famous for his seminal equation in quantum field theory, called the Schrödinger equation. This equation provided a way to calculate the wave function of a system and how it changes with time. His "Schrödinger's Cat" thought experiment...
Feynman
This "Paper Genius" collage celebrates the work of Richard Phillips Feynman. He is famous for the creation of "Feynman Diagrams," which are graphic representations of complex mathematical expressions needed to describe interacting subatomic particles such as electrons and positrons (positive electrons). He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965 for his fundamental work in quantum electrodynamics...
Galileo
This "Paper Genius" collage celebrates the achievements and discoveries of Galileo Galilei. He is best known for his discovery of the 4 largest moons of Jupiter, proving the validity of the Heliocentric theory, and his work on falling objects. He also studied the resistance of bodies to separation...
Newton
This "Paper Genius" collage celebrates the groundbreaking achievements of Isaac Newton. This collage highlights his many seminal works on gravity, calculus, economics, light, and his famous manuscript, "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy)...
