The Time Machine by Ben Farrow

Classic Literature

Each Creative Action Network poster is hand-printed and handled to make sure that only the highest quality is offered and sent out. The sturdy matte paper and premium inks create a vibrant, museum-quality image that looks great both framed and unframed. Posters are printed in Los Angeles, CA on Epson Enhanced Matte Paper heavyweight stock, with a wide color gamut and Epson UltraChrome HDR ink-jet technology. The framed poster arrives wrapped in a protective yet lightweight black frame and includes a shatter-resistant acrylite front protector that won't break during shipping. International orders may be subject to customs duties & taxes.

I'm a British digital artist who draws animals in suits, and sometimes other things, too. I'm an anthropomorphic artist, a graphic designer, sometimes a photographer, a proud furry, and a self-proclaimed geek. I currently live in Devon where I like to photograph old buildings, draw raccoons and be socially awkward.

Artist Statement

This design was made mainly in Adobe Illustrator, with some elements made first in Photoshop. I focussed on the image of a match, being an important detail in the book. The contrast between light and dark was the basis of the main part of the design. I also wanted to represent both the Eloi and Morlocks, using the machinery pattern in the background to represent the underground, and the plant motifs in the moon phase circle to represent the beauty and life of the overworld. — Ben Farrow
