"Dear Robert, I've noticed an amazing phenomenon. On the days that I paint I don't get a migraine! At first I thought it was a coincidence but after close observation to the timing it's become evident that there's a correlation. I started painting full time 5 years ago and it has literally changed my life! Have you heard of this?"

I find that very interesting. For about two weeks this month I was painting a lot, I painted 23 metres x 1 metre of jungle on brown paper for a children's holiday club. Previous to this time I have had nerve issues and since then they have almost totally resolved. I wonder if there is a connection.
Hi Amanda - I'm sure there is a connection. In the beginning I questioned whether their was a link between the amount of painting I did with how I was feeling - but after a few years of being doubtful I now fully embrace and acknowledge this effect.
I'd love to see your jungle painting - it sounds fabulous!
This is very nice Donna!
Thanks Sharon
