Marrs for Bentley: Inspired by the GTC
To mark the launch of the new Continental GTC, Bentley asked six up and coming artists to commission an exclusive piece of art.
A fun commission i worked on two days before i went on holiday, the deadline was tight, but the final out come worked out well. The image had to get across the theme Exhilarating.The image is to be used for point of sale in-store and direct mail.
See my illo on the Bentley site and a cheeky portrait of yours truly. (click on image to get to the bentley site)

@marrzman’s cover art for Gigspanner’s new album gets a rave review from Wire Magazine!
Wire magazine: review on Gigspanner’s new Album
“The delicately evocative montage of Tim Marrs’ cover artwork for both releases reflects this fine music perfectly, a tracery of memories and imaginings yet robust enough to accommodate the image of a bottle-opener, that practical seal of folky camaraderie alluded to by the group’s name”.
This is the latest Album from Gigspanner a band formed by Peter Knight ( legendary folk violinist and member of Steeleye Span and former neighbour of mine ) I’ve worked with Peter before on their previous release and was excited to have the chance to work with the band again and catch up over a few warm beers.
I enjoy working on these kind of projects as it often allows you to explore different styles of work and more experimental approaches to compliment the music and the story telling in each of the tracks. I’m lucky that Peter and the fellow band members trusted me and gave me great freedom to create. The end product had to capture an element of the live music experience and sit happily as an object alongside the previous album…. i think that was roughly the starting brief i had. Well worth a listen, beautifully crafted and evocative, a little like the album artwork ; )

Tim Marrs’ (@marrzman) illustrations for Swedish soft drink Festis, out now. See more of Marrs’ illustrations here.
Out Now…. in Sweden. Marrs puts his flavour on a range of fun and slightly funky named Swedish soft drinks. A fun and intense project, with a scary nine day turnaround… a week of late nights and 17 hour days but we got there in the end.
Check out the illustration @marrzman (Tim Mars) did of Timothy Olyphant for Maxim magazine.
Timothy Olyphant….. for maxim usa.
A good name and actor who has worked with the legendary Elmore Leonard bringing the cowboy hat wearing U.S marshal Raylan Givens to life, in Justified. I illustrated the Elmore covers in which the Raylan character first appeared in. Riding the Rap and Pronto…. a good read indeed
Cycling addicts unite - an illustration by Tim Marrs for Procycling magazine
Procycling magazine… lots of fun to be had in the world of two wheels. Coinciding with my recent 2 wheeled purchase, a Geoff Wiles retro road bike / racer … those wheels are thin and this beast is fast. I’m scared!
