Eerie Monster Art

Mike Friedrich is a Visual Dr. Frankenstein

The artwork of Mike Friedrich is what a nightmare would look like if it took place in a glow-and-the-dark bowling alley. With twisted visuals and a uniquely dark but vibrant style, his work has an unmistakeable colorful mischief to it.

In this collection, his fascination with nightmarish monstrosities is particularly apparent in his rich, but darkly inspired illustrations. One of these Mike Friedrich pictures in particular attempts to reinterpret Alice in Wonderland and the Wizard of Oz with a decidedly sinister twist, showcasing the artist’s ability to bring his own particular flare and style to recognizable fare.
