Darkness and fantasy collide as Jasmine Becket-Griffith and David Van Gogh celebrate the milestone of their collaborative venture, “Death & the Maiden: Maiden Voyage” comic book launch at The Dark Art Emporium in Long Beach California, renowned for showcasing art that delves into the mysterious and the macabre. For those who couldn’t attend the event, there’s good news! Their inspiring pop-up will be on display for the rest of December!
The collaboration between Jasmine and David is a testament to their shared passion for dark fantasy, a genre that blends the supernatural with sinister and cinematic, creating a tapestry of storytelling.
