When my son was two years old, I went through a bitter divorce and custody battle. I drew. My mom kept asking if I needed therapy, but I declined. When she and my dad visited and saw my drawings, my father said, "Now I understand why you didn't need therapy." About three years later, as my dad lay dying the the hospital, art saved me again. I appreciate this conversation. I spent ten years in art school, but family, work, the dance of daily living have led to many years without comfortably sitting, sketchbook and pen in hand. It's time again. I hope to have some periods of joy to capture.

This has been helpful. I line draw while in waiting rooms. But I always worried about what everyone else thinks. I don't worry about that anymore, thanks to this. I just do it for me. At home, I sometimes just use colours and shapes and marks to express feelings. I don't worry about an end product. I don't even think too much. I found it's easier for me than meditation.

This is so on the mark gentlemen. Reconnecting with our creativity is key in healing for sure. Nature journalling has the added bonus of reconnecting us with nature at the same time. Reconnecting with nature is another key in healing. ✨🙏✨

Thank you for all of the hardwork you put into your channel!! I've always had that mentality of...well my art looks so ugly..what's the point of even doing it..but since watching your videos. I've finally embraced my art....and rather than calling it ugly...its UNIQUE! I stopped all forms of creativity once I got to High school since my friends were expert level artists..so it seem pointless and discouraging to make something next to their impeccable art. But now a decade later...I'm having fun painting rocks...doodling in a sketch book and painting small canvas for fun! Its amazing to see your own creativity come into play and make a blank canvas into something beautiful and one of a kind!

Writing healed my ulcerative colitis--I felt the exact moment it was taken out of my body--it was like someone reached in to that raw, opened spot and yanked it right out. Sketchbooking was a great companion the years I cared for my Mom after she was diagnosed with cancer. I have one drawing of a lab coat hung on an IV pole in a hospital room that I love and another really quick sketch I did when she dozed off sitting up on the couch in her living room. I was surprised that they were decent drawings. Tiny successes and vivid memories. Thank you both. Have a great summer! --- KateColors

KateColors:That is extraordinarily wonderful that writing healed you! it would be vvaluable and interesteing if you would tell me what your life situation was and felt like at that time, what stress levels and basic safety, what social/intimacy/friendship/love life (fair- good -great?) was like then? Did ypou feel relatively stable sense of hope, belief you could/would heal, or did it happen quite unconsciously while you did what you did, sort of by itself? How long had you had the ulcerative Colitis, and was that your only health imbalance? I have the opposite experience, feeling that my anxiety moved into my body and became locked, bound, incorporated inside. this happened after 24 years disease when I finally got the diagnoses. Idk whether an unfortunate comment by a Dr might have contributed to it, or whether I misinterpreted it: He said that I had not accepted my disease.That was said 10 years before I got the diagnoses. I didn't know what he meant, was not aware of it, and told myself consciously almost obsessive-compulsively about it in order to do the right thing. And thought that it would be easier to heal if I did that accepting. I wish he had said what he meant and helped me accepting in the right way. But he probably didn't see the Aspergers part, nor the heavy metal toxicity and deep stress. He mentioned very high sensitivity. (Later came the d. Ancholysing Spondylitits).

KateColors: I also wonder whether it happened at once when you started writing, or after having done it for (quite) a while? Did you write daíly or how often, approximately? How much or For how long? What were you writing about, your personal process and sort of preparing for7 welcoming/ anticipating healing? I would be grateful and glad for your answers. Keep well! I healed many benign hard lumps in my breasts which were claimed to be incurable. I am so grateful for that. Also the painful stage before stomach ulcer, but that was only by changing my diet and possibly the start of giving some loving attention and real care to my stomach.

Art has allowed me to see the real meaning in my life. Without art, I was blind to all the rather obvious cues to what means most to me. Learning to draw, which is still ongoing for me, opened up a whole dimension to me. Then when I began to paint, it was like getting a color tv! I was living my whole life with a black and white TV!

I have loved all three seasons of Art For All and have just finished listening to them all for the second time. I particularly enjoyed Season Three with the addition of John Muir Laws. The conversations between Danny and John were so thought provoking and I really thought a lot about all the different subjects that you spoke about. I hope that you will continue your conversations together into the future. Thank you both for your honesty and letting us know that we are already good enough to make whatever art we want to!

For the past few months I have been battleing stage 4 metastatic cervical cancer and lymphoma...on top of that I am in a custody battle that is pretty intense,but getting better. I absolutely love art . It's a huge passion. I also love doing art with my 7 year old daughter. It has helped me cope with so much...I don't think many understand 😕 recently i have been so obsessed with urban sketching...just sketching in general. It makes me Happy ..so I don't feel thats bad. Since iv seen some of your videos ...it's helped me alot. I don't have to be a perfect artist in order to make art.

Laughed out loud at the conversation following Danny's suggestion that drawing a piece of toast can be meditative. John: "And if you get a crummy drawing, that's actually the point." Gregory: "Then you can toast your drawing." John: "Then you're out of a jam." Thanks, I needed a good laugh today. Haha.

"teenagers may be drawn to art 'unconsciously' " .... I would change each time you say that to 'subconsciously'. it's hard to do something unconsciously, except sleep and breathe, being unconscious ... but we can pick up on a lot of things subconsciously, right? ha ha - we all need to realize (subconsciously) what we are really saying. and I agree, after teaching high school art for years; many students who were struggling, were doodling or wanting a viable outlet for their feelings.

the example , that comes to mind ,while painting one feels …… for me , is a comic book of superman, where he takes the watch of his friend Jimmy Olsen ……. for the signal, to focus on, when he went into multidimensional space ,,, the sound of that alarm made him to keep his focus. to come out of that confusing area which was pulling him in every direction. ……. I feel just like that while drawing n painting. ……. just wanted to share 🎨⭐️

My 15 y.o. grandson Elijah Gomez was murdered May 9, gunned down walking home from high school school. Even though my very beginner watercolors are muddy and every “rule” of technique is willfully ignored, it has been thought calming for rumination this third week of anger and grief.

@@SketchBookSkool You replied, how nice! I wonde whether the 1st I watched was really your 1st one.? About perfectionism. Anyhow, if those were your very 1st drawings, - gosh! I tried today, have got an Ignatian soul guidance with a priest (1 hour every 2-3 weeks, started 3 daysa ago.) It includes drawing/painting. I was so inhibited ,unpractised and paralyzed, and had forgotten how to, my mind, soul and limbs weren't there anymore. I have let it be unused for to many years, wanting to solve my fatal unlivable probelems first. But they have only got worse. And I have been severely harmed , was made 3d stage burnt out for decades,apart from serious enough disease from before, getting my self-help sabotaged and no professional as needed. Probably the effects of all this plays a part in my initial inability . I won't give up although it was a disheartening, tensing and depressing experience. Idk how you say it is liberating even if bad. mAybe if one is relaxed adn believes one is going to liv... Your podcast with the comrade' about art being able to be healing is sth I am going to open myself to. Thank you.
