		<description><![CDATA[When I asked friends what they thought of Black Rainbow, most said it was weird and disturbing. Most found it somewhat humorous and clever while others leaned towards dark and provoking.  I agree with all of the above.  When I look back to my childhood, my choice of comics were Archie and Family Circus.

		<description><![CDATA[This is a brief rundown of how I have been managing the work flow for producing Black Rainbow. Please note that I have adopted the mentality of treating Black Rainbow like a job as opposed to a hobby. It is a priority in my life and specific time is allotted to its&#8217; production.

		<description><![CDATA[I recently finished a new batch of strips that make me nervous. The reason is that I am trying to implement more light and shadow into Black Rainbow. This has proven challenging because light and shadow is probably my weakest area in drawing. I was also criticized immensely for my grasp on it during art [...]]]></description>

Without hesitation I snatched up size 1, 2, and 000 brushes for just over $50 CDN. Boy, was I happy. I eagerly awaited the fifth [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here are some thoughts on hand lettering for Black Rainbow. I use a Micron Sakura pen size 1 or Faber Castell Ecco Pigment pen size 0.8 for lettering. They produce consistent, strong, non-bleeding black lines that maximize legibility. I do feel self conscious about my chicken scratchy writing style. I have read that a strip&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
