Loneliness improved my Art and Mindset 🌱 Forest Visit + Paint with me ✨ Cozy Art Vlog

Beeing alone can be great too! Showing you in this video how loneliness helped me to improve my Painting skills and overall mindset. Influence from outside can be so powerfull but did you ever listened to you inner Voice? How powerfull that one can be too? When you learn to trust your intuition, your path in life can become more clear. And beside that talk I will show you the process of a big oilpainting and we will visit a big forest . Everything is filmed and edited by myself.
Hope you enjoy this Art Vlog❣️

📚Books, Lets get smart:

Inspiring books:

As a film student and enthusiast, I have to say this makes me almost emotional. Beautiful camera work, perfect soundtrack and even better content. I don’t have words to describe my feelings properly, but this is one of the most stunning YouTube videos I’ve ever watched. Incredible!

[clauditasefa]

i'm literally so IN LOVE.
i've always wanted to live a pure life. just nature, art and me. and i can say that this video right here is what i want. this is impossible to explain, but i'm feeling happy.

[alexaromero]

people think i'm weird for love being alone but being alone is so relaxing to me

[SaekredRebl]

I literally painted myself into a depression the other day because I'd become so focused on perfection thinking about seeing my piece in someone's home or sitting on someone's desk. I haven't painted since because it makes me anxious when I look at my supplies. But when you said how important it was the enjoy the process, it was so healing to me. Honestly, the entired video has been very healing for me.... Thank you.

[Angelasmile]

I love art, I remember back when I am still a student I do sketching and paintings. It really calms and explores my imagination. Watching your video give me encouragement to paint again. I like the ambience and your paintings. Thanks

[jessicaminch]

art isn’t meant to be perfect, it’s meant to express emotions ❤️ love this video

[cm-bj]

Love your attitude. Covid has taught us to learn how to be alone and the trick is to not BE LONELY. I too like to paint, sew, make jewelry, craft... there are so many things in life we can do on our own - it's very fulfilling to watch your videos! Thank You!

[Noelciaaa]

I'd been anxious about living on my own and this helped me see the bright side, of how it can make me actually feel better, happier and allow to accomplish more, be more focused. Thank you!

[onlyintime]

I like this new style of art vlogging that includes voiceover with self reflection, both art related thoughts and personal thoughts. I admire how considerate you are to take the extra effort to complete the frame at your school instead of creating extra noise at home. I am sure others have not been as considerate to you but it really speaks to the level of your character to be considerate regardless.

[ribbity_robbity]

I don’t think I’ve ever been so inspired by an artist, I’d love to see more of your work 💕

[Metfan]

This video came upon me by accident but I think it was purely intentional in a divine sense. I know I can't be the only one out in this world dealing with anxiety and depression all the while trying to find my purpose in life again and to live happy. The part about enjoying the process has been hard for me with anxiety and I just want the end result but I know the work has to be done to get there. This was really inspirational for me and I will try to enjoy just doing what I like to do instead of rushing to the end. I've found already my process is messy and not what I envisioned. Thank you.

[keeno]

I started my art journey last month, complete new to drawing and painting, last week i started my first painting (Copy of Otto Mueller, Liebespaar) and yesterday me and my girlfriend seperated. Your Video is giving me hope that i can heal and that i can take this event to dive further into art and into myself. Thanks for the Video.

[beckylongstocking]

this video was recommended to me and I am so thankful that it was! I’ve been struggling with loneliness, and I’ve lost my passion for creating art just for myself, which used to be my favorite cure for loneliness. I found myself crying as you painted, and I realized that I deserve to make art again. I’m rambling, but basically I just wanted to say thank you. your work, both this video and the painting, is sensational. I think my soul needed to see this video to realize what I’ve been missing for so long. 💕

[alfrottos]

I'm always so much in love with how these Art vlogs are composed and play out. You're 100% right with calling them cozy, they're relaxing, but also give me so much motivation and inspiration to start my art journey up again and get out of blocks all the time. Thank you Valerie for always making these :)

[AmandaSbarros]

I found so much love being alone. Of course, It took long years for me to be able to go through the depression haze and find myself, but I feel as though I finally did. I'm not afraid of people anymore, I love spending time with my cats, with my mom, even with my dad. Studying is something that gives me joy because it makes me remember how hard I tried to be able to be here studying what I love, and I feel grateful for myself. It isn't easier than before, but it definitely hurts less. For the first time in my life, I have happiness in peace, I'm fine.

Finally I found someone that produces this kind of content! This video was so motivational and relaxing I love it. *I’m subbing*

[AtomicJava]

Valerie this was the PURE SHOT OF SEROTONIN that I needed! Your videos are so soothing to watch and I aspire to make such beautiful content someday. I love the multiple angle shots, your whole inspiring set up, how much light you have in your studio, your clothing style and more than anything the way you express yourself and the inspirational words you share. Keep up the wonderful work. I can’t wait for more content 💓

[elisablanco]

You really make me feel like taking out my brushes, pencils, oils and canvas out of my old wardrobe. I literally need to fall in love with my passion for art again, and you are such a source of inspiration...thank you.

[thefufudiaries]

I want you to know how much peace I find in watching and listening to your videos. Thank you so much.

Valerie is my motivation to grow as an artist
