Walt Disney was an engineer was he not? And look what he created? If Disneyland/Disneyworld are not creative and on the more artistic side, I don't know what is!
Not sure if this counts, but I'm also thinking about Steve Jobs. :)
I wasn't familiar with Steve Jobs, Ker Metanoia, but I looked him up and I would say he definitely had a creative and artistic mind though an engineer above all.Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American businessman, inventor, and industrial designer...
"creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing."
Jobs helped to initiate the development of the visual effects industry when he funded the spinout of the computer graphics division of George Lucas's Lucasfilm in 1986.] The new company, Pixar, would eventually produce the first fully computer-animated film, Toy Story
