Hey everyone,  just wanted to share something a little bit personal today. This is a commissioned art from a girl named Chrissy. It's an artwork of two brothers hanging out, the younger one passed from suicide years ago, so this was meant to be a gift for the older brother to commemorate the good times they had together. It's a really meaningful piece, and there's nothing particularly special about it, except this won't reach the intended recipient because I just got news this morning that the older brother overdosed last week during his late brother's birthday.

I heard about their story from Chrissy while we were chatting about the commission idea, I'm still in disbelief because we were so close. The night I was done with this was the night he took his own life. I don't know them personally, but it's still extremely upsetting so I can only imagine how it must be like for their loved ones. Depression is real, so this is a small PSA to please seek help if you struggle with it.

Don't mean to bring the energy down on the start of the week, I sincerely hope every one of you are doing okay. Please take care and remember people love you <3
