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.

Wookie Brain-Freeze + Garfield Chewie Costume - Day 9 2013


A request was made for another Garfield and I told the boys I'm drawing Chewbacca tonight, as the theme. Me and the little guy came up with the Brain-Freeze gag and the Garfield Comic-Con gag came up when I decided to have the dog Odie copy Garfield and dress up like Chewbacca too. Semi-successful on that one. I was happy with the Odie, though.
