Description
A sort-of self-portrait. I'm a migraine sufferer,
and this is as close as I can get to describing to
people what it feels like to have this horrible pain
on the left side of my head...behind my eye, always
in the same spot...it feels like there's this bright,
blinding light exploding out of my head.

A very nice representation, and a situation I understand all too well, save that in my case i also get occasional pounding and drilling sensations as if spikes are being hammered into my head.. And I think the simple background conveys the sense of isolation very well when one is in the throes of a migraine -- you feel mentally and emotionally isolated since there's nothing somebody else can do to help, and oft have to physically isolate yourself as much as possible to minimize the strain and agony of everyday sensory input.. A very nicely done bit of art, especially in its simplicity :)

I understand the lense flair after reading, I too have suffered many Migrains and I feel your pain! I hope that they will soon depart and a great image this is!

Thanks guys. I've had migraines with some regularity over the past 25 or so years. They're not going to stop in the forseeable future, but I have learned something of how to manage them and reduce the frequency, thankfully!

My prayers are with you, hon!! I know what it is to have such headaches, but I will admit it's been some years since my last one. It's a horrible explosion in the head for me; kind of like you describe. This is another well done render!! You have such a wonderful gift and I'm glad you enjoy sharing with the rest of us!! Thank you!! v
