“Get Together” is an 18×24 acrylic painting on canvas, blending earthy abstraction with quiet symbolism. Set in rich autumn tones – warm browns, dark greens, bright yellows, and soft grays – it shows a group of deer emerging from between trees, each approaching from a different direction.

This piece reflects a quiet longing: the desire to connect, the wonder of what might happen next, and the hesitation that often comes before we step forward. As a school psychologist, I often witness this – students, families, even staff members navigating new meetings, unfamiliar faces, and uncertain beginnings.

This painting captures the same emotional space: where curiosity and vulnerability meet.
