I designed a new poster to help support the second issue of Datura Magazine! PRE-ORDERS ARE OPEN NOW!
"Datura Magazine is a josei-inspired anthology series featuring a range of speculative and realist stories for an queer adult audience that, like the poisonous datura flower, might have an edge to them. We look to expand on ideas of "Girl's Love," along the lines of how its counterpart BL can be a gender-expansive space." - https://daturazine.carrd.co/
Datura Magazine is organized by my good friends Sunmi and Mar, and I had the pleasure of having a comic in the first issue (reprints are also on pre-order!). Orders are going through them, but my add-on print is at a special pre-order price of only 15 bucks!
This poster is inspired by my comic in the first issue, Body Count. Here are some photos of that process:

Ink layers
And for extra fun, you can watch this TikTok I made of the screenprinting process!: https://www.tiktok.com/@cathygjohn/video/7261761933374786859?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7268316993711277610
Thank you so much for you support!
