Help Japan

I was just looking through some of my folders and I came across a couple of designs I had done when the recent Tsunami hit Japan.

I did both of them in Illustrator, and drew the cherry blossoms using my wacom tablet.

However I decided that in it's simplest form, to me anyway, graphic design is essentially art. So I decided to do this in a typographic poster.
