neato!

Man that was fun. Thanks!
 - 
Thank God I grew up! Brilliant!

(((
 - 
I think I prefer the kids pictures, to be honest Especially this one
 - 
I like the monster pictures better than the superhero ones, but I likes 'em all.
 - 
The super hero ones look like monsters too.
 - 
Wheeeeee! (((( I do wish I might see the Toilet Monster...at a safely artistic remove, mind you.
 - 
What a great idea! On the other hand, I wonder if his paintings make the kids feel inadequate. On the gripping hand, they're kids. Fuck 'em!
 - 
Nice link.
 - 
Man, this is awesome. I'd love to have side-by-side prints of these.
 - 
These kids need to be taught about copyright law.
 - 
mct -- I would too! That was my first thought after, "whoa, cool!"

One grotesquely misshapen, arbitrarily eyeballed and smearily colored banana for you, meredithea.
 - 
arbitrarily eyeballed... hee hee hee! Thanks!

Try again today, Bees. This was way cool. If that's what kids are really picturing in their minds when they sketch out a monster, no wonder they pee the bed at night. *shudders, turns on nightlight

Oh, these are great fun! Seven year-old Brendon Miller's flame-headed, bird-stomached monster compels my admirtation -- I think this lad has a future.
