Guest Strip: John Balash

walkmantzJohn Balash graduated from the University of Connecticut in 2001 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Illustration.  He currently works at the Yale University Art Gallery.

Earlier this year, he completed a graphic memoir titled Worker Be, and is currently looking for a publisher for this project. Worker Be is a slice of life story about what it means to be a worker in America, set against the backdrop of retail banality.

More of his work and musings can be found on his blog: www.johnblathers.blogspot.com

Here's Balash on the history of today's guest strip: "The Adventures of Walkman was inspired by an old Walkman that my dad bought at a tag sale. I hope you enjoy it!"
