[…] People are turning Moleskines into art for sale as physical objects. Hugh Macleod from Gaping Void has this one. […]

I guess someone acted quickly on this. Don’t think you’ll be short of buyers somehow. Nice one.

Nice, Hugh. I’m glad you found a buyer. If I bought that framed piece I’d hang it on my wall and treat it like a fire extinguisher: “Break glass when in need of creative inspiration”.

That is brilliant.
It might be good to actually fill a whole book, and frame it open on one page, with a certificate on the back of the frame that says the artwork is invalidated if you try and bust it out of the frame to read the other pages.
Also — Book of Kells. Have you ever thought about doing a whole sketchbook and publishing it as a limited edition signed monograph? A bit like this:

Really like the framing on this. Would love to see more framed moleskine journals like it. It’s a cool meme/social object/blah blah blah effect.
And yeah, actually, I could afford it and might get one some day when my building is done and the price has doubled

Thanks for the kind words, Chaps.
Re. Price: I just added “We’re talking in the $700 range.“
Somebody has already offered me that for the piece. Rock on.

Very nice sketch, I was wondering what sort of ballpark price you’re thinking of? Have been keeping a close eye on life in Texas and also was (am?) still considering buying one of your bigger pictures as/when you sell them.
Also — wondered whether I could get your permission to use your twitter is down cartoon on a new blog I’m setting up for a bit of fun. Can tell you more on email/dm — if you could let me know which is best.
Or catch me on twitter.com/chris_reed
Thanks
Chris
