Artists unite for Japan Flags

April 22, 2011

Since March 11, the tragedy in Japan has impacted the entire world in many ways and unfortunately continues to do so.

But can we make a difference? We certainly can! As artists and designers, we can support the people of Japan and their struggle with our art.

French Agency Creasenso did exactly that by gathering 11 talented illustrators to create some amazing designs for sale, in order to support the Red Cross in its efforts to aid refugees. They will donate 100% of all profits to this worthy cause.

The illustrations featured here are not only poignant and beautiful, but also evoke a powerful spectrum of emotions.

Take a look at the art below and feel free to leave your comments about these stunning pieces. Visit the Japan Flags website if you're interested in supporting this cause, or for more information about each of these pieces.
