Star Wars Lunch Bag: A description

Star Wars Lunch Bag: A description

Star Wars lunch bags were something I started for my eldest son when he began Summer Camp in 2009. It was something special that I could do for him each day. It also acted as an ice-breaker, a conversation piece between my son, the camp staff and the other campers. Now, I've got two boys in camp, so it's double the quota. Each night I draw up pictures, usually something "Star Wars-y" on the next day's lunch bags. It can be any thing: a ship, a character, a mash-up, or whatever ( I do take requests.) It's something fun for them to discover each morning. And, it's a reminder of me, their Dad, when they are off having fun at camp.
In years past, most of the bags were kept by the camp staff. But, so far this year, the boys have been bringing them home to keep for themselves.

Some of the bags turn out fairly decent. And others, perhaps, not as successful or artistically satisfying. But, in the end, it's all for fun - theirs... and mine.

JAWA's LITTLE HELPER - Lunch-bag - 2012


Something cute for the lunch-bag today: A JAWA father and son working together, Mom calls them in for lunch. I don't know where the idea came from. Last night I thought, I've never drawn a JAWA. So, it was decided in my mind I'm going to draw a JAWA doing something. It started with the big Jawa, and then I doodled a box in front of him, which then became an R2 unit, and then I added the little kid Jawa holding up a missing piece of the droid. Somewhere in the sand there's bound to be that droid's head.
"Hooteenie!"
