Digging Dino

Digging Dino, sandwich bag art

We all have favorites, and I have many favorites among my sandwich bags. Digging Dino is definitely one.

I remember looking at the groove in the bread and thinking about some kind of cutaway-like image, something buried. What I like about this is the bone sticking up through the dirt showing the person depicted that something is underneath. We get to see that something.

The ideas come to me as I am having breakfast with one of my sons. This bag probably took me about a minute or 2 to realize the idea, 2 to 3 minutes to draw. Most of the bags take a little less time.

My Favorite Sandwich Bags

I used Flickr to archive my Sandwich Bag Art because my kids tossed them in the lunch room trash. Not because they didn’t like them, but because they were used to me just making a quick drawing and leaving it around.

I’ve written about how I came to Flickr as the place to archive these quick drawings. You can find almost all the Sandwich Bag Art there; I may have missed a few in the beginning.

I do have my favorite bags, and I have an album on Flickr that I haven’t looked at in at least 6 years. I’m going to share My Favorites album, knowing that I may add or subtract from it. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments about a particular bag or bags in this album.

I also have an album of all the 2,000+ Sandwich Bags I drew when my kids were in elementary school and high school. You can find the Flicker album here.

In case you’re wondering, here’s the link to my public Flickr page.

Let me know if you have any questions.
