i think one of the best parts of using art for therapy is that you focus on it for hours and your mind can’t think of anything else. it’s awesome to paint on a bad day because it makes the day end sooner if that makes sense haha

[@GameReviewsXX]

Ever since I discovered the Bob Ross videos, I've been enthralled in watching all painting tutorial videos all over KZbin. This is one of my favourites. I'm glad I found this channel.

[@rawdaahmed6594]

Same

[@wandamanske8667]

You’re painting is so relaxing and beautiful.

[@Gabeloveyou]

100% disabled for PTSD. I share your pain. You inspire; hang of every word. Bless you.

[@tatianagonzalez718]

My depression/stress/anxiety came back recently and it’s been hitting me extremely hard! When I found this video, I was sitting in my room crying & just wanting to paint. This video helped calm me down so much! I wish there were more b/c whether I paint along or not, they truly are just calming to the mind, body, & soul. I love your videos & I hope see to see more of these painting therapy ones soon ❤️

[@nlilifairweather8397]

You are a treasure.. Your openness yourself inspires me. I love your tutorials and marvel at the beauty of your paintings.

[@Shadingoftheheart]

Thank you for bringing this to light (pun intended). My family has a history of depression that frequently leads to suicidal thoughts and feelings. Growing up, it wasn't talked about and I attempted to take my life before I turned 22. My daughters are 18 and 19 now and have been raised in an environment where mental health is freely discussed and not stigmatized. We were able to identify the signs early with both of them and began therapy in middle school. Bless you for being so transparent and vulnerable via your art and your KZbin channel -- awareness, acceptance and early intervention is the only way we will ever see a decrease in suicide rates and attempts.

[@KatieJobling]

Sorry to hear you've struggled with depression too, it seems most do at some point. That's amazing that you have created that open and free environment for your teen daughters. I feel passionate about creating these tutorials and giving somewhere for our depression to 'be'. Thanks for your comment and for sharing with us!

[@teampartyversion2.061]

katiiieee plsss make more videos of your tutoriaaal I'm so inliove with your works. It helps me a lot. I'm battling with depression. Love and hugs!

[@dell4277]

I JUST FOUND THIS TUTORIAL AND I MUST SAY ..FOR ME..THERE IS SOMETHING SO RELAXING ABOUT THIS...VERY RELAXING...

[@nanalinda2020]

Thank you for your transparency. I love these videos.I am new to painting and you have helped me grow a lot.

[@PretzelSurvival]

The bittersweet music and painting is a perfect combo.

[@marcossakaguti]

Big like. Especially for calling it a nebula and not a galaxy. There are so many artists who make videos called "How to paint a galaxy" and they paint a nebula. :-)

[@MyLifeInDebt]

You are such a talented and lovely human. Thanks for these videos!

[@roberthines1692]

Katie I just absolutely love your videos I’m 61 years old and been painting all my life I think of all the videos out there on KZbin you always seem to inspire me.Please keep up the great work.😀

[@tothebirds1]

[@sandyworsham]

Just found you! You helped me tonight watching u paint the reddish skies and stars. I was really stuck in depression tonight. I needed something to get me out of this cycle. You helped tremendously! Thank you. I will follow you seriously. Til then........ keep talking while you paint. New Artist on Line Sandy

[@amylathwell9534]

This is really lovely. I totally agree that art can help greatly with anxiety and depression. Of all the painting subjects, night skies are my absolutely favourite so I really love this one!

[@studio-989]

Well done Katie! I really enjoyed your video and choice of color pallet for this today! Thank you so much!

[@cathypainter7429]

[@EllaPesonenArt]

Love this idea 💕 I can vouch for art's power to make you feel better. It's just great to have an outlet at that point and painting at least for me always cheers me up.

[@KatieJobling]

🙌🏻 Yesss!

[@sarawakstudio1111]

Soothing voice...v therapeutic and goes well with this art therapy. Well presented.

[@tia3521]

You are going from strength to strength! Thankyou for this series, you inspire me to pick up my brush and paint even when I feel stressed. Stay blessed 🙏💖

[@yolipedraza5556]

Beautiful. Going to try it. Thanks.

[@JT-iq7sg]

Very beautifully put Katie, I love all that you said in the intro! Thank you so much for all you do & for sharing your wonderful work with us! I really appreciate it

[@gypsymumma9015]

I agree girl love your art pieces

[@lindseyemberton5286]

Love this tutorial. The length and commentary is perfectly balanced! Also, I really enjoyed the color combination. The blue and purple galaxy has been done quite often so this was a nice twist! Thank you!

[@marycaciamasser3814]

Katie you are my favorite painter to watch! I love watching you paint, I love the sound of you painting, I love the sound of your voice as you describe the steps of painting. I love your painting style- loose and organic. You just make it look so easy but I know you have a very real gift for painting. Thank you for sharing your talents with us on KZbin!! You’re so relaxing to watch and I really try to apply the methods you use when I paint. 💛

[@designdae]

Thank you so much for doing this, I really needed it. I’ve been depressed for a while now and this really helps me through it.

[@Twinzma]

Thank you so much! Painting has saved my life. It's my time alone.

[@gloristrange3978]

Watched this on a dark rainy day. It really was very calming. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent.

[@fifi7244]

LOVE the colors and the blending technique. Beautiful painting Katie! Thanks!

[@cherigreen4471]

Katie you are beautiful inside and out, so kind and generous with your talent! This turned out beautiful and it was so relaxing and uplifting to watch you create!

[@Alt87213]

I absolutely love that you are doing this art therapy series :) I too struggle with anxiety/depression, and the one thing I have found that helps me a lot, is to paint ! It is sadly not a cure but it helps take my mind to another place, one that is free from all the negative thoughts !! Thank you for this and I look forward to seeing you paint some more ❤️

[@anaana-tn4mh]

I love this and keep coming back to this video it really helps my mood please make more like these 🙏 💘

[@lev4392]

I love the idea of this video:) I think one of the great things about the art community is that it is not only a place to share interest in art, but it has also been a source of support for me (and I think others) who struggle with mental health issues.

[@britneyzellmer7320]

I love painting but following your tutorial brings me so much calm and joy. Thank you so much!

[@Zombiecupcake157]

This is so meditative! I am doing it now and I can feel myself breathing so deeply like I'm meditating. And all the scribbling is sooo therapeutic. Thank you!

[@atokea77777]

Bonjour Katie. Je suis bien contente pour vous que la peinture vous aide à dépasser des passages de chutes de moral. C'est le bienfait de réaliser une activité qui apporte du plaisir, qui fait que l'on se sent mieux et tant mieux. Cela dit, il ne ne parait pas justifié d'utiliser le terme d'art-thérapie pour cette activité. l'Art thérapie est une pratique de soin qui est réalisée dans un cadre bien particulier avec un professionnel art-thérapeute formé, expérimenté et certifié. C'est un traitement qui est focalisé sur l'aspect psychique de l'individu et qui a pour support le médium artistique. Ce n'est pas le médium peinture qui soigne. C'est un peu comme si vous vouliez faire de l'automédecine. Il est nécessaire de se pouvoir se décentrer avec un tiers. Il y a un process bien particulier engendré qui ne peut se faire seul avec soi meme. C'est comme les fameux carnets de dessins que l'on trouve dans les magasins en France qui sont titrés Art thérapie. C'est un abus de langage et une utilisation inappropriée de l'Art thérapie à des fins commerciales. Il me parait important de préciser cela d'autant que l'art thérapie a pris un essor important ces dernieres années, et qu'il est tout aussi important de redonner la consistance qui est la sienne a une pratique therapeutique a part entiere. Tout comme vous ne faites pas juste de la peinture, mais vous Katie vous pratiquez un art pictural à part entière. C'est avec de la bienveillance dans le coeur que je vous écris. Bien à vous.

[@jamesjohnson-corwin3828]

Thank you Katie!

[@hearttidd9275]

I used to draw and try to paint and its been almost 3-4 years since I've drawn or even looked at art and so ive been watching people painting because I really want to get back into it. When I saw this I was amazed. Keep doing what you do, your amazing!

[@domydgo1068]

I love the sound of the brush on the canvas !

[@francineh.7825]

I love this painting!!

[@Fleefer]

[@chronicmodifier]

Thank you so much for these tutorials. You have given me the courage to paint for real. It's been amazing to see what I can do. I always get these voices in my head telling me I am not good enough before I start any paiting. Listening to you has shown me that I can push past that and make good art. Thank you

[@kristablanco8077]

I have been enjoying your painting tutorials so much. They are not only helpful, calming and fun, but you are great at narrating as you paint. Which really is helpful to follow along. Thank you.

[@kimberlyerinmaya]

Thank you so much for sharing your talent and tutorials with us Katie! I've been following you for about 3 years now and there is not one painting that you do that I don't like. I have always been artistic but because of you, you gave me the confidence to learn how to paint! Thank you for sharing your techniques! I enjoy every single video you post! You are my biggest inspiration!

[@jarcticcat]
