I've recently stopped drawing the webcomic Everyday Critics (deviantART [link] ; Blogspot [link] ) to pursue a more personal experience in webcomics with Balloons & Panels (deviantART [link] ; Blogspot [link] ).

My goal is to create a comic strip that both utilizes what almost all webcomics do (Shading/Colors, a URL, etc.) but present it like a traditional newspaper strip that we grew up with (hand drawn, hand inked, handwritten, etc.)

Also, since Balloons & Panels is hand drawn, hand inked, handwritten, etc. bear with me as I evolve my art style, and (since I'm not a fan of inking) as my inking gets cleaner and sharper, along with my lettering.

I really can't wait to get an archive under my belt and use Balloons & Panels as a way to continue to grow in a hobby I truly love, art. I also hope that while I use it to grow, you use it to laugh and take a breather from the troubles around you.

So, don't be a stranger and if you like what you see, stick with me, and tell your friends and your enemies. Hopefully this will be a long ride.
