In her column in Feminist Bookstore News, Tee Corinne wrote:
We have ... lost a young artist, Julie Hopp of Rainbow's End in Oregon, age 36, to a brain hemorrhage. Hopp's lively designs were published in We'Moon Almanac, on the cover of Lesbian Connection, [and] as self-published postcards. I hope they reach a larger audience in the future.1
This page displays some of those designs; please reach out if you know of any others that could be added.
