art for Japan : updated

I think a lot of people feel helpless with everything we’ve seen and read since last Friday. Some artists have quickly made special prints available as fundraisers, here are a few. (Will keep adding more as I find them – if you have anything to add to this please mention it in the comments.)

Over at 20×200 there are some prints for which all proceeds of the sale will benefit Japan Society’s Earthquake Relief Fund.
