Thank-you, Heidi. With this painting I didn't set out to paint the theme of migraine, I just happened to get one whilst the work was in progress, and seemed the most prominent thing about me as the work was being finished. The faintness of the mouth is actually a compositional element - in the struggle of finding something that worked the mouth happened. Although, I do think that , even if not deliberately, everything I put down related to the migraine.
