Ok, I know it is not in a Moleskine or even on paper for that matter but I thought I would share.
.
About 14 years ago I did a ceiling painting for one of my best friends. He had a basement in a rental that he used for his drum set and a party room. A full basement with a bathroom and all. He allowed me to paint whatever I wanted. He eventually painted it over when he left as it was just a rental.
Being a huge, dare I say the biggest, Van Halen fan I knew what I wanted to paint immediately. Combining the Van Halen Hand Sign with the Frankenstein paint scheme on Eddie’s guitar, I came up with this. During the unveiling I marched him blindfolded into the basement, had him lay on the ground face up, put in his favorite VH song, blasted it on and he went nuts.Ah, good times.

2011Sep 1tags: planning sketch | portrait | water colorThis is a sketchbook study for a commissioned portrait I am working on. …well, commissioned as in purchased as an item at a charity auction. No one is ACTUALLY going to pay me to paint.
I am trying to decide if I want to add ink to this. Since this is just the sketchbook version, I might go ahead and try. Let me know what you think, and if anyone has any general ideas for the big version I would love to hear them!
