When Dominick Cabalo noticed four years ago that his son Nicholas,then in Grade4,was struggling to make new friends at school,he came up with a creative way to help him“break the ice”.The graphic artist from Glendale,Calif,started creating amazing drawings on his sons brown paper lunch bags.

From Captain America to Darth Vader to Kobe Bryant,Cabalo has drawn about400pictures of animals,superheroes,movie characters and pop culture icons(偶像）on his son’s lunch bags. The Grade8student told CTV News Channel on Wednesday that he had noticed the influence his father's artwork had on social life at school.

“It would encourage a conversation.If it was a movie,then we would talk about what happened or our favorite scenes,”Nicholas said.“People I don’t talk to would start talking to me about what my father has drawn on bags.”

Although Cabalo said he couldn’t see his son’s schoolmates’reactions to his drawings first-hand,Nicholas would often let him know which ones were hits at school.“If I do something funny or draw something quite humorous,Nicholas will report back to me and say,‘Oh yeah,they really liked this one,’”Cabalo said.

Cabalo said his son’s favorite drawings are the ones about superheroes.He explained that, every time a new superhero movie is released(上映）,he will make sure to include that character on a lunch bag.With so many lunch bags and superhero movie series,Cabalo admits there have been a few repeated characters over the years.
