About the Artwork
“This photo, altered in Photoshop Express, started as a selfie of me wearing my purple ice hat and noise-cancelling headphones with a TENS unit stuck on my forehead. I wanted to depict the intensity of all stimuli during a migraine, coupled with the isolation of chronic illness.”
When she’s not down with a migraine, Julie Bloss Kelsey enjoys writing poetry and crafting. She is a board member of The Haiku Foundation and runs Seneca Creek Crafts, a tiny Etsy shop of miniwreaths. Julie lives in suburban Maryland with her husband, kids, a miniature dachshund, and four fish.
