Description Not sure what to do with this: I was cleaning out my studio and came across this photo of Arthur C. Clark (who wrote 2001 among many other things). I DID NOT TAKE THIS PICTURE!
The reason I am showing it is because the painting behind him is one of mine: it shows my idea of what a terraformed Mars would look like. This was an illustration that I did for the book The Millennial Project by Marshall T. Savage. Mr Clark wrote a glowing endorsement of the book and admired the painting so.....we sent it to him in Sri Lanka.
Later he had this photo taken and sent it to us.

I was stunned to get his praise on a painting. I've always loved his books.

I wish I had recorded the phone call when Marshall called to tell me that Arthur C Clark was endorsing his book!

There is talk of doing an update. I have already talked to another writer about doing some more illustrations.

Got another job offer from a former boss--now a devout Mormon--who wants me to do a cover on a book he's writing about marriage.....yeah, I've never been married and I'm not a Mormon, but the cover idea sounds intriguing (a Celestial tree of some kind)

ZeynowaR In reply to Keithspangle [2012-02-15 09:11:59 +0000 UTC]

a cover about marriage? a scifi nude bride? ;D

Sad to say, he wanted the couple "modestly dressed" as they gaze upon the celestial tree.

I'm not sure, but I think that's against his religion.
