Things that Make Me Dad
I have many internet heroes. The lady who write Seriously, so Blessed, the AMAZING people at Holiday Insights, my mom, Brian Tiemann (the guy who made the website that, through The Lion King, got me back into loving art...even if I don't go there anymore), many many webcomic artists including Tracy Butler, the people who work at Cake Wrecks, and now this guy.
 Monday, I discovered Lunch Bag Art, which is a field that is actually quite large and I had no idea existed. Okay, that's a slight lie...obviously lunch bag art exists, because lunch bags are awesome to draw on. But I didn't know it could be this ~awesome~.
 Everyday, he makes lunchbags for his children, Dana and Dylan. Sometimes they suit their requests or what they like. Other times, he makes lunchbags to suit the requests of the people who live on the internet. 
He's very much a dad, and his info is short, sweet, to the point, and with the limit of elloquation only a guy can pull off. It says "A new bag each day for my kids. I'm the dad. I make these during my lunch break." and his post descriptions are even shorter. He'd do very well on twitter.
 He works as a video game artist, which suits him perfectly, I think.
 They're updated daily, even now during summer, which makes me curious. But these bags are DEFINATELY for his kids and go with them to school, (one had Calvin from Calvin & Hobbes ranting about his hate towards school and was returned home with a note that said, "Drawings are very cool! But not the comments. :("
 Also, you can tell he really loves not only what he does, but who he does it for.
 Basically...awesome.And that link again is http://lunchbagart.tumblr.com/.
