SciFi & Fantasy Artwork by Timothy M. Marston

Great gallery, so various and imaginative. I love the way you use watercolors. It was a real pleasure to visit it. Of course, I already put your name into my favourite Elfwood's artists list.

Timothy M. Marston replies: "Thanks, I enjoyed looking at your watercolors as well!"

Lewis and Macdonald.... some of the best stuff of all time. Awesome to see art originating from those sources.

Timothy M. Marston replies: "Yeah, a lot of people have read Lewis, but not a lot have read MacDonald, which is crazy because MacDonald is where Lewis got his inspiration from. Thanks for the comment"

Your artwork is amazing. i really love it. keep on doing this, it would be a sin if you didn't.

Timothy M. Marston replies: "Thanks, I'm glad you like it "

I'm proud of the fact that a significant number of your pictures were painted at my request.

You're brilliant, Tim.

Let's connect soon about new album art.

Love your drawing. keep up the good work!
Good colors, good way of expressing emotions. Intense

About the bet between C.S. Lewis and Tolkien that was mentioned above, they had a bet/challenge that was supposed to stretch both of their writing styles. Lewis was supposed to write a sci-fi story (which he did in a trilogy, beginning with "Out of the Silent Planet") and Tolkien was supposed to write a "time-travel" story. Tolkien's attempt was the long & magical but incomplete poem "The Cottage of the Lost Play" which you can read in the Book of Lost Tales 1. Lewis technically won because he actually finished his story. These are lesser-known works of theirs, but are no means inferior to what they're both famous for.

And I know what you mean about the family of Christ transcending cultures! I've met Christians who were Vietnamese, Japanese, Cambodians, from the Congo, Belarussians, Brits, New Zealanders, etc. - and no matter where they're from or what language they speak, the Holy Spirit really DOES create a special and immediate bond! Keep the faith!

Timothy, I left a comment on your pic "Sad". but I also wanted to comment on your work as a whole - YOU ARE A GIFT! you exhibit so much passion and life in your work and your presence in Elfwood is greatly refreshing. THANK YOU for everything you have posted here, YOU embody the magic of Elfwood and the fantasy genre.

Dear Timothy,
I understand you own the rights to this play. Is there any chance our church drama group could purchase the rights from you so we could do a production in our church.? Please respond. Hopefully, Rev Jay Trygstad

Sorry, I forgot to mention the name of the play, The Great Divorce. Also, did you record the production on DVD and if so who would I speak to about getting a copy? Jay Trystad

Jay - my apologies, but I only painted a picture called "The Great Divorce," and have no connection to any play corresponding to the book of the same title. Anyway, got the wrong guy, sorry, but good luck!
