COMING SOON! T-shirt sale to raise money for Japan

So I really wanted to do something for Japan after the earthquake and tsunami. I read so many tweets, facebook posts, mixi posts and various news blogs about this event and I was truly touched by the actions Japanese took when the event happened. Instead of panicing, healthy people started helping others by just yelling "is everyone ok? how can I help?", when the traffic was awful and chaotic on the interstate, no one honked the horn except as a "thank you" gesture, at Disneyland high school kids would give away all their snacks and souvenirs to younger kids, homeless man provides cardboard box to the people waiting in line for the train for hours, etc etc... I spend half day today reading about the stories of PEOPLE.

Then, I wanted to help. And after few hours of brainstorm, I decided to contact the artist I admire as a person and as an artist. So that's how this idea becomes the real thing.

SO... me and other truly talented artist I admire and trust are developing a online t-shirt store. All the funds will be donated to Red Cross and I will try my best to give everyone the visibility into how much money we raise.

I will announce where the online store is VERY SOON! I hope you can take a look at the store:)
