Artistic suicide
A couple of days ago a bought the largest moleskine sketchbook (approx. four times larger then the ones I usually use), it will probably not be completed before I die. The paper seem not to be quite the same, my pen bleed a little more then usual so I will probably only use every other spread.

WOW! it's huge! mutant moleskine!!!
ReplyDeleteYes it's to big I think
ReplyDeleteWow. I'm looking forward to your big drawings! But will it be harder to start drawing in this big one?
ReplyDeleteHoly...
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you come up with for this...
ReplyDeleteYes I think it will be harder to start drawing I have to sit at a table to draw, It will be very hard to scan
ReplyDeletemarvelous! a page is a world!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can use it for wallpaper after you're finished?
ReplyDeleteI have one of those too Mattias. I agree on the paper quality/weight. I use mine only for pencil work. I also have the 8x10, I think that's the A4? That paper quality is more in line with the smaller moleskines and really like the size better. Anxious to see what you do with this Mattias!
ReplyDeleteNo the size is more a3+ I first was opting for the A4 one but in the end vent for the full distance.
ReplyDeletewallpaper is a good idea Terry
All your little ones are absolutely amazing. I would expect that the huge one would be even better!!!! Looking forward to see the new drawings from the new sketchbook!
ReplyDeleteFascinating to see a half-done drawing - as a "straight in with the ink" girl such planning would drive me mad - but what results!
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for your pain, but am happy for us readers! I can't wait to see the finished product on your giant moleskine!
ReplyDeleteThe beginnings of an amazing drawing. Again.
ReplyDeleteI, for one, am very relieved to see that you pencil first. It somehow makes me feel less insecure about my own work.
That notebook. Too big for a train journey, no?
Now that's a big sketch book, good luck filling it up.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's pretty crazy. But I want to buy a poster of it when it is all finished.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow!
ReplyDeleteYou are such an inspiration!!! ><
ReplyDeleteGreat !
ReplyDeleteHow many pages does it hold?
ReplyDeleteUAU...I loooove this kind of suicides!!! :-D
ReplyDeleteMaria Lopes
it was really nice work! thanks a lot for sharing with us :)
ReplyDeleteYikes, that is big. Nice to see how this drawing is started. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteI dislike the moleskine hype. Paper very average. Best of luck
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. It's like Where's Waldo except much much better.
ReplyDeleteFascinating. SO beautiful to look at.
ReplyDeleteYes! Crank out that awesomeness! Looking forward to your results.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely use every other spread in case, I didn't do that and ended up spoiling the previous page! :( Doh.
I would never dare to use the first page. This is a very scarey size for a sketchbook.
ReplyDeletehave enjoyed looking at your drawings very much this morning. inspiring, too, this big sketchbook of yours. agree about the moleskin paper hype thing, but hey, yes, why not just use every other spread.
