Living and dying in the 502; talk at me.

Pat Perry is an artist and illustrator who calls Grand Rapids, Michigan home. The lands of the north, colorful people, music, and the ordinary streets of the Midwest have always moved him.

Clementine: Joely? 
Joel: Yeah Tangerine? 
Clementine: Am I ugly? 
Joel: Uh-uh. 
Clementine: When I was a kid, I thought I was. I can’t believe I’m crying already. Sometimes I think people don’t understand how lonely it is to be a kid, like you don’t matter. So, I’m eight, and I have these toys, these dolls. My favorite is this ugly girl doll who I call Clementine, and I keep yelling at her, “You can’t be ugly! Be pretty!” It’s weird, like if I can transform her, I would magically change, too. 
Joel: You’re pretty. 
Clementine: Joely, don’t ever leave me. 
Joel: You’re pretty… you’re pretty… pretty…
