Did you grow up scared of monsters? Do they still make you nervous? Well, you haven’t met Justin Pape's team of cartoony monsters. These paintings feature monsters from 'We Kill You,' a lifestyle brand created by Toronto artist Justin Pape. Pape's mission is to create a brighter world that is happy and more fun for everyone.
These pictures are the merging of Justin’s graphic design work and his team of cutesy characters like a bat, ghost, Sasquatch, ape, bunny, and bear. Justin Pape's work will hopefully get rid of that nasty stereotype of bad, mean monsters.
