That depends where on the Moon that you are. Since the Moon has an orbit in synchronous with it's revolution, then the Earth cannot be seen from almost half of the Moon's surface at all.

From the rest of the Moon, the Earth would appear in a constant position, with changes in the appearance based on the Earth's rotation, and on the Moon's revolution about the planet. Like the Moon in our sky, the Earth from the Moon would go through similar phases, as the Moon travels from the lit side of the Earth to the dark side of the Earth.

quite a bit bigger and allot more colorful.

If you do a google search on "view of earth from moon" there is a color pic you can download and see how it looked.
