We’re all Painting Something Beautiful.
In this heartfelt original song, we explore how every feeling—happy, sad, calm, or wild—is a color in the artwork of your day. Just like a painter uses every shade on the color wheel, we can use all our emotions to tell our stories. This video helps kids understand that naming and expressing feelings is not only okay—it’s beautiful. We CAN have more than two feelings at one time, because emotions are complex. Sometimes we may even experience two opposing feelings. All of our feelings are okay. There are no bad emotions. It is often our words and our actions as a result of our feelings that can be harmful to us or to others.
Verse 1:
I want to paint a picture
To tell the story of my day
I want to make something pretty
Put the sad colors away
But there is so much I am feeling
I want my painting to be real
Such a spectrum of emotions
I’ll need all colors of the wheel
Chorus:
And I’m painting something beautiful
I’m making something true
Be it bright or bold or gloomy
Every blend of every hue
There’s a million shades of color
And none of them are wrong
And like the palette of your feelings
Every single one belongs
Verse 2:
Everyone is like an artist
Making something new each day
And when you name and know your feelings
It will help you find your way
Chorus:
And I’m painting something beautiful
I’m making something true
Be it bright or bold or gloomy
Every blend of every hue
There’s a million shades of color
And none of them are wrong
And like the palette of your feelings
Every single one belongs
