After seeing the shocking footage from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan, I thought I would contribute in the only way a broke artist can do. By selling some of my pieces and donating the money to the Red Cross!
The pieces I'm selling was not supposed to be released untill the opening of a planned show in Tokyo, Japan this spring. I have friends, customers and several people I know over there I feel extra obliged to contribute!
All prices are including postage but if you want, put shipping cost on top of the price, and include them in the donation!!
I also encourage other artists on here to contribute with whatever they can, and people with prints dusting away under the bed to dig them out and do what you can!!
Peace and Love! Martin

Great offer. To be brutal though, your money may still be better going to many other places. Haiti, etc. Japan is still one of the worlds richest countries and will no doubt help it's people.
Happy- Japan will have their citizens pay for all of the reconstruction themselves via taxes. However, I do agree that funds should also go to Chilé and Haiti. But for right now, we need to do all we can to get the basics (water, food and clothing) to the victims in Japan.
Maybe the money would be better off going to Haiti and Chile. My best friends dad lost everything in the Chile quake and shot himself in the ruins of his home last month. It's pretty grim.
Theese are still for sale. I will listen to offers on them as the help is needed sooner rather than later!
I think its still much need for financial help to fund organizations like the Red Cross or similar to move people, equipment etc. over there! I also do agree that Haiti or Chile needs the cash. I have a couple more. So if you want to buy one and put the money in that direction please feel free to contact me!
