Professional Artists Bringing Children's Drawings Of Monsters To Life For Heartwarming Project

One of the most wonderful things about kids is that vivid imagination of theirs. Everything is possible in their little heads, which is why they often think they can get away with telling the most blatantly fabricated tales to their parents or guardians.

Now, aside from their tendency to tell fibs, allowing them to develop their creativity is always a plus. And in order to do just this, artists from all over the world have decided to get on board with "The Monster Project". The project has now been running for four years and centres around elementary students drawing monsters to the best of their abilities.

Once the drawings are complete, the artists then go about bringing these "monsters" to life. In doing so, the aim is that the children will be able to recognize the power of their own imagination and that this will perhaps encourage them to pursue their creative potential.

It is really a monster or a defenceless, little creature?

11. What's better than a pumpkin, you ask?

Simple: one pumpkin stacked on top of another to create one terrifying fire-breathing monster.

12. It's like three creatures in one: dog, unicorn, and dragon

As far as both adorable and terrifying creatures go, this one's definitely onto a winner.

This one's definitely won the scary contest!

So there you have it: with modern technology, you can recreate pretty much anything which these children and artists have demonstrated perfectly.
