May Art Drop: “Together We Grow"

5/10/2025

We’re visiting my mom today in McPherson, and I’m leaving this month’s art drop at Swan Court in Lakeside Park—a place layered with memory. It’s where I was married, where my sister was married, and where so many others in our community have begun their journeys together. A place shaped by love, held by time.
​

The piece I’m leaving behind is called Together We Grow, and here’s what it carries:
Abstract painting titled Together We Grow, featuring a curved horizon and contrasting colors, symbolizing shared growth and emotional resilience.Picture

Together We Grow
​

A horizon bends—not broken, but bowed—as if shaped by time, by weather, by love. At its curve, a bright sphere hovers, not quite a sun, not quite a moon—only presence. Something steady. Something becoming.

Together We Grow is a portrait of relationship as landscape—how connection reshapes the line between self and other. The edge between yellow warmth and shadowed blue is not a boundary but a joining. Not opposition, but coexistence.

In this bending, in this meeting of colors and shapes, there’s a quiet resilience. We grow not in symmetry, but in response—in trust, in tension, in the shared willingness to remain.

This is what it means to grow together: to tilt, to adjust, to stay.
