Every Day For The Last 2 Years, This Dad Drew On His First-Grader Son’s Lunch Bags
Bryan Dunn is a graphic designer, illustrator and loving father who regularly draws on his son’s brown lunch paper bags. The lucky kid recently finished first grade, which gave the dad a symbolic opportunity to revisit his amusing project and select his favorite illustrations from the past year.
“I draw all the time, I decided his bags were good practice. Tough material to work on, and it would motivate me to keep doing something different every day,” writes Dunn on reddit.
All of the illustrations are funny and refreshing, featuring cartoon characters from pop culture or purely from Dunn’s own imagination. The characters range from Spider Man to Tyrannosaurus Jedi and from a hybrid Jokermelion to the sandwich jelly fish – all fun and unexpected, and all sure to have brightened his lucky kid’s lunchtime.
Got wisdom to pour?
how utterly wonderful
I love these drawings so much, but I also love the photos of the drawings. Cut up apple slices and carrot coins. I jar of peanut butter and slices of white bread. A Ziploc baggie full of tiny pretzels. A Mo Willems book, colored pencils and a coloring book, a small bright green plastic bowl. Love it!
My girls are about to start a 2 week summer day camp.
conversation yesterday:
“You know how you always write stuff like ‘You Rock’ on my aluminum foil sandwich in my packed lunch?”
“Yeah.”
“I really love that. I wish all moms did that for their kids at camp.”
Little things make little hearts full.
Wow! Thanks for the write up, I never thought I’d see these on a site I actually visit!
cool dad!
Wow! What a sweet and talented Dad. Kid could learn a lot from this and maybe become an illustrator in the future too.Ü
What a sweet dad. The kids must look forward to lunch everyday, will also be great memories for them when they grow up.
