"Before taking Kathy’s art course, Awaken Art, I was agitated, anxious and wanting to control things. I also wanted to learn art. I enjoyed attending the sessions. This was a good reminder of Christ who brings peace in the midst of our circumstances.

Kathy is a gifted artist and teacher, affirming and patient, and helpful with feedback.

The opportunity was wonderful in carving out time and reminded me of the payoff of investing in practice. After taking her course, I noticed fewer body aches, less pain and better sleep. I was also less agitated and angry. I began letting God take the lead and surrendered wanting to control things. My thoughts were more positive. I was worrying less and living in a more balanced way."

"I didn’t feel that I could draw or paint very well. I was pleasantly surprised. Kathy truly helped me to tap into a gift that God has given me. She is a very talented artist and tender teacher! I learned to give up anger, embrace my weaknesses, and allow the Holy Spirit time and energy to whisper to me.

After the program, I noticed less agitation and anger and a decrease in wanting to control things. I had less anxiety."

"I was agitated, angry and wanted to control things. Taking Kathy’s course has shown me to be a bit bolder in my walk, such as praying out loud. After the 90-day program, I saw an improvement with my mood and that my thoughts were more positive.

Kathy is very talented in drawing and shows how to start from simple shapes to get the right proportions. She starts out with pencil and charcoal drawings, then introduces painting later on. She is a very caring person and will take time to pray for concerns. I didn't realize how negative I was. She was an answer to prayer."
