Abstract
Drawing is what Ramon does. It's what makes him happy. In one split second, all that is changed. A single reckless remark by his older brother turns Ramon's once carefree expressions into joyless struggles. Lucky for Ramon, his younger sister sees the world differently. She opens his eyes to something far more valuable than getting things just "right."
