Dave Blumenthal is an Australian artist, most notable for drawing cartoons and dad jokes on his children's lunch bags under the nickname Sandwich Bag Dad. [1] Blumenthal started drawing on his eldest daughter's lunch bags in 2012 to add some fun to her school day and over the course of more than a decade, has amassed a following on social media, particularly Instagram and Facebook. [2] His work features a variety of pop culture references, puns, and characters, all drawn in a humorous style and has been featured across numerous Australian and international media outlets [3] [4] [5] [6], television news [7] and radio stations [8] [9].
Blumenthal's cartoon art was the subject of a solo exhibition at The National Cartoon Gallery in Coffs Harbour in 2021 [10] and at The Hawthorn Town Hall Gallery in 2022 [11]. He has also published a book of his lunch bag cartoons entitled "The Cartoon Chronicles of Sandwich Bag Dad [12]" which features some of his favorite creations.
