Saying Brendan Monroe's art is organic is like saying Dr. Suess really liked illustrating children's books. Not only is it organic; it's disturbing, haunting, loaded with character, and that character needs professional help. Their form is seemingly mild and even commonplace at first, then you notice they are looking at you. Psychotic fruit anyone?

Monroe's artwork was featured on the cover of The New York Times Magazine (3/11/2007).
