Flickr features sandwich bag art

BLOG flickr blog 03-05-2013Today, March 5, 2013, Flickr featured my sandwich bag art on their blog.

The tile is “Every line counts” and the beginning of their post is “Let us introduce you to the cool art of D Laferriere.”  Thank you Flickr!

My two sons have been getting these in their lunches since May of 2008. And  I don’t sketch out something first. Something pops into my head and I begin to draw. Each mark on the bag usually can’t be easily corrected so yes “every line does count.”  They don’t take long to do, a couple of minutes usually, occasionally five minutes.

All the comments about my bags are awesome. Thanks.

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.
