Practicing at Home

The four-panel format was my first and most used comic style, and it belies that fact that most of my audience was on Insta which (at the time) relied on square images. It was a great format and four squares is sometimes just the right amount to play around with a particular gag.

If anything, since stopping my artistic work on this comic I have gotten more and more into music. But even back then the Kid was learning the piano and I was learning the violin, so there was a lot of musical learning going on at our house. It made for endless comedic stories.

You may have noticed some redundancy in the written content in these posts, particularly if you’ve been reading more than one or two of them. A couple years ago the original piday.ca site was hacked and lost… and I have had to rebuild it all from scratch. I had all the comics and art, but I have taken some shortcuts with a bulk content editor to try and give those comic strips as much context as I can.
