Description

A rediscovered gem from the past! John Harris painted this super cool piece back in 1986 for a corporate client (used for their brochure and hung in the corporate office). John recently got it back all these years later, cleaned it up, fixed the frame and renamed it "Magrathea" (the planet in Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy where they would build "designer planets" for the mega wealthy). Here we see the construction of one of these designer worlds!

I absolutely love the combination of pastoral and hi-tech, along with John's incredible depiction of scale. And the perspective/composition is remarkable!
