Oh well done - I was almost afraid to look as my daughter and I both suffer from this. Very truthful portrayal, and it is very isolating (the migraine experience that is)
Alethea M replied:
Hi Ann - Amazing how looking at a painting of pain can cause flash backs and the "knowing". Thank you so much for responding with your comment. :) Blessings to you and your daughter.

Alethea M replied:
Thank you Donna - it is astounding how many artists live with migraines! Hmmmmmmm, kinda makes ya wonder what migraines would be like without the peace and solitude associated with art.

Please do Judy...maybe there should be a new group started called "Migraine"? LOL I'd love to see your painting. No one can understand what a vicious and ugly migraine is like...until they have experienced one. Ugh, huh?
