ONEAL designs

ugh. My heart has been heavy these past few weeks. A friend’s daughter took her own life earlier this month and my mind just can’t seem to comprehend it. She graduated with my baby girl and was the PICTURE of beauty and s***k and intelligence. I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that she’s gone, and tears seem to flow at unexpected times lately.

I know my little “100 Reasons to Live” drawings...are just drawings. But they are the only way I know how to cope with the heaviness in my heart. I don’t want to watch another friend stand beside her daughter’s casket. Or watch another baby have to say goodbye to her best friend. PLEASE! 🙏🏻

So...I’ll continue with these illustrations and pray for all our children! If you or someone you know is thinking about su***de, please call 988, The Su***de and Crisis Lifeline.

Reason #14 the first snowfall.

Gosh…I realize I haven’t posted on Instagram since last year! I always stress about the first post of the year. Like it’s gotta be something extra special or genius! Screw that…I’m just ripping off the bandaid and posting!

January has been busy with lots of strategic planning for 2025, new client projects, buying trips for and licensing work. Here’s hoping that this year goes a little easier on us all! ❤️
