Description

Illustration taken from Sadako Sasaki's story, a girl that after 9 years of the World War II, was diagnosed with leukemia. Her best friend reminded her of the tale about a man that made 1000 paper cranes and the Gods granted him a wish. She started making the paper cranes but the sickness gradually made her weak enough to not be able to finish her task. The day she died she only was able to finish 644 paper cranes...

From one artist to another: Please read my message until the end. I would like to ask something of you. You drew a picture in regards to "Japan 2011-03-11". I would linke to use your piece of art for my project. I started this project on facebook, you will find it under Pray & Remember 2011-03-11 or follow the link. I don't want that catastrophe to be forgotten. Too many Japanese had to give their lives. I want to show them respect - the dead as well as the survivors. Let us both achieve something. Of course your name will be mentioned - it is your piece of art after all. Even if you do not want to participate in this project I would be more than happy if you had a look at the project. I am thankful for every member. I want to reach out to as many people as possible. I thank you very much for reading until the end. Thank you, my friend. www.facebook.com/groups/221531…
