Adults Charmingly Reinterpret Children’s Drawings in ‘The Monster Project’

Marijke Buurlage

I find it so charming when adults reinterpret children’s artwork. It showcases how crazy and imaginative kids are, and with an adult’s touch, it adds a level of sophistication that brings out the best of both worlds. The Monster Project has a simple mission: to “help children recognize the power of their own imaginations and to encourage them to pursue their creative potential.” Kids draw monsters, then artists from around the world recreate them in their own styles. Check out their project gallery with over 100 terrifyingly adorable monsters.

The Monster Project is currently raising funding to expand their project to schools, products, and more. Visit their Kickstarter.  (Thanks to Gianluca Maruotti for submitting this link!)
