Youth Cartoonists Support Japan

Cartoonmovement.com inspires me. Youthful artists hopefully send in their political cartoons to the web site and the site editors select a few for its prominent space. Fortunately, the editors also show the pitched cartoons. I found an amazing selection of great drawings that show how much young artists around the world rally for support Japan with their talent.  The web site also lets you vote for the best cartoons.

Here's a selection for you to peruse and enjoy.  If you really like one of them, feel free to hop on over to cartoonmovement.com and vote for it. I'm sure these young artists would appreciate your support.
