Happy Father’s Day!

We’d like to celebrate with you all with a good chuckle, after all, who doesn’t love a Dad joke?!
We’ve put together a collection of projects from some super creative Dad’s that’ll be sure to put a smile on your face! 

‘Sandwich’ Dad

We’ve all had to make a pack lunch or two at some point in our lives and think we can all agree, it can be pretty dull!
This Dad has found a way to spice things up.

Graphic designer and Illustrator, David Laferriere stared drawing on his son’s sandwich bags in 2008. Take a look at his quirky and fun sharpie creations below! 

We are now off to make a formal complaint to Dad’s HQ about our squished, tin foil covered rolls! 

David saw all his children through to high school with their ink lunches until 2nd June 2017. Posting his last ever sandwich illustration on Flickr with a heartwarming caption; ‘The journey in between has been awesome and just a bit crazy at times. Thank you to my kids and thank you all!’

Guess this is what happens when you get a creative to do a simple task, they usually manage to find a way to put a fun spin on it! Want to see more sandwiches? Click the link below.

‘Photoshop King’ Dad

 As Graphic Designers at the MK9 Design studio we’ve all spent a fair few hours exploring Photoshop while editing funny photos of friends in bizarre situation that never existed! There’s a lot of fun and trickery to be had once you know what you’re doing and this Dad certainly knows his way around Photoshop! 

Editing images of his children in wild and wacky situations, photographer John Wilhelm creates these super realistic shots that have a signature dad sense of humour.

 Roles Reversed 

In this reference there is a slight difference  as the child becomes the artist! Dad, Eric express’ his love for his two daughters by getting their artwork tattooed on himself! Take a look…
