Lol this is cool. I like how you've actually acknowledged other countries and your message is clear and strong.
PS also at the time of Australias floods we also had bush fires all through Victoria.

Thank you for this. There's been a ton of Japan stuff, which is great, but the other people need just as much help - if not more. Nice piece.

This is beautiful, I still remember when Indonesia hit by 9.3SR earthquake and cause a 35m Tsunami,,it was very shocking me and now happened in Japan and other countries w/ so many different disasters. Let's pray for us all

This is great.
Some people say: "Don't forget us!" or "This doesn't deserve a DD"
Don't Forget: A picture can only have so much room.
Doesn't Deserve: "This isn't necessarily for the art as it is for the message.
Great job overall.

I actually like this one. Well deserved DD imo. I really like the style it was done and I think the tsunami looks okay it goes well with the more minimalist outlook of the piece.
As far as the nay-saying goes for this getting a DD...to me it seems far more thoughtful than a "Pray for Japan" slapped on some textured background with a chibi/red circle// like most of the other "tsunami DD"s have been.

that made me wanna cry! I will most definitely pray for them.

this is a very touching artwork... great message hunny

I love that while you pray for Japan, you're also praying for all the forgotten countries in the world where people are suffering from disasters, natural or man-made. I'm an Austrailan who's fortunate enough to not be affected by the floods, but still feel for both my neigbouring states and New Zealand's recent earthquakes. Thank you. So very much.

I really like the concept here, but I don't think your art really does it justice. I like how you tried to make it look almost traditional media, but I think you made the colors a bit too drab looking-- not enough contrast, too much neutral brown. Your anatomy and poses are also a bit shoddy: some people have deformed shoulders and hips, and others seem to be leaning forward in a way that makes it seem like they are going to topple over before the tsunami even hits them.
I'm not sure if this deserves a DD. Concept is certainly worthy, but I don't think the concept can make up for the mediocre art.
(I took a look at your gallery, and your other art is better (at least technique-wise). Were you rushed?)

Yes, as I mentioned in the artist's comment, I started on 11 PM. I doodled in Photoshop(instead of drawing on paper which I'm more comfortable with, I regret it) and then worked from onwards to 5 AM, which I finished, mainly because I had to visit mom in the morning. I didn't really have time to check the anatomy and the use of colors, so it was definitely a rushed piece of work, so I wasn't anticipating for it to get a DD.
But thanks for dropping by to leave a comment!

Heh, I always forget to read the artist's comments.
You may want to consider editing this-- the concept is really quite nice. You could probably bring up the quality considerably if you spent a bit more time tweaking it. XD

Haha, it's alright! I hate myself being impatient- but at least I have learnt my lesson- to be more patient so that the quality of my works will not go down.

I've been seeing a lot of art on this tsunami and next to all of them say " Pray for Japan". This picture says that and then some without needing text 
π: 0 β©: 1
Whoops. I specified the Japanese, but I meant everyone having a hard time on the list and stuff XP

Thank you for remembering the other countries. I'm glad that someone else realizes that disasters don't just go away when the news stops covering them, or when a few months have passed.
Can I add Pakistan (flooding) and China (earthquake) to your list? Both are a few years old, but prayers are still needed.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh my, just realized you had China down at the bottom there! Sorry about that!

Finally someone remembers to pray for other countries too! 
Im really glad for this piece of art, im sure it has opened many eyes for truth and reality
Lets pray for every country in the world

This is a.. beautiful piece.
there have been alot of artworks drawn to pray for seperate countries, but you have made one to pray for everyone who has been suffering...
on a lighter note... is the one on the far left Australian?? Cause he looks like a mini steve irwin or something =]

As soon as i saw the khaki shorts i knew it had to be my home country haha.

This is beautiful, absolutely beautiful. While the style is simple, it's beautiful and represents that, even though all of these countries have been terribly hurt in one way or another, they still have their humanity.
Japan has handled the tsunamis, the earthquake and aftershocks, and the nuclear reactor situation beautifully and calmly and in an organized fashion.
Libya is fighting for their freedom under the horrible dictator, and yet even through all this chaos people of differences (financially, socially, etc.) have united together for one cause. Egypt has also done this and although not as bloody as Libya's, they're uniting into one is equally beautiful. (I see that "No to power abuse" sign!)
All the other countries that I didn't mention do the same thing: They unite together. And that's what makes us so human. I just wish that we could see this and truly open our eyes.
I am elated and feel that you really do deserve that Daily Deviation. Wear it with pride, milady.
