Robots and Monsters is a project started by Joe Alterio where he will create a custom drawn robot or monster of your choice for $50 based on the words and phrases you provide him. He will then send you the original and donate the money to a good cause. This quarter Joe is donating all proceeds to The Electronic Frontier Foundation. Here’s the menagerie of robots and monsters that Joe has created so far.

RobotsAndMonsters.org is a charitable art project that matches goodwill and charitable giving with custom-made commissioned cartoon and pop art. Giving just a little bit gets you an original drawing of a robot or a monster of your specification sent to your door – and in the process, you get to sleep better at night, because you know you’ve just helped out a great cause. C’mon in, and wipe your feet, stranger.
