Artists re-created children`s monster doodles (12 PICS)

Artist and designer Katie Johnson has a thing for monsters. Not those of the morbid variety, but the cutesy, kid-friendly kind. Through The Monster Project, Johnson invites elementary students to draw their own monsters. Then professional artists bring their monsters to life. So Johnson grew a small army of artists to help students discover their own inner artists and see the potential of their ideas. And though they're all volunteers, they definitely get something out of it.
