About

Hello! Rising Sun is a gathering of artists from all over the world, who feel the need to help people who have been affected by the Earthquake/Tsunami in Japan. In this project, we aim to produce a charity art book with the name "Rising Sun"

Your art can be about:

1. what you find most beautiful/love the most about japan(places, culture, scenery, holiday, etc, excluding anime/manga). We are looking for illustrative works depicting scenery or something dynamic--like something caught on a camera.

tentative submission deadline: July 6
dimensions: 8.5"x11" , 300dpi or more
for2 pg spread: 17.4" x 11.25", 300dpi or more

!Please send your file to japanartproject@gmail.com in PNG format!
Also, please try to answer this questionnaire about you and your work!

Name(or online name whichever you prefer) :
Your country(ex: USA,Germany,Russia,etc):
Link to your gallery/portfolio:
What aspect of Japan did you choose to draw and why did you choose it? (please keep it at 75 words):

The charity art book, "Rising Sun" will be sold online and at the convention Otakon. All proceeds from the sales will go to:

1. Japanese Salvation Army (our reasoning being that by the time June rolls around, shelters would become more of a necessity than immediate emergency measures)

2. (only if enough were raised) Doctors without Borders

Please do not post your entry online until the ordering/delivering is over. thanks :)
