How did I get here? I've always had art to keep me happily busy, but at some point along the way I let it go without even noticing. It became a summer time hobby, at best, and I left it at that without asking any questions.
After developing chronic migraines and tension headaches I found myself stuck on the couch for a few months feeling like I'd lost all ability to enjoy my life. What could I do other than heat my neck, do my stretches, attend my appointments and stare at the ceiling? I booked a boudoir photoshoot for months down the road for something to look forward to. What does this have to do with anything? Well, I became inspired -- after looking at boudoir photos and practicing some poses -- to draw a nude woman sitting on the moon. I spent hours making the first piece. Then came the second one, the third one...the fourth one. All of a sudden art took me back, after I let it go, and it started to help me through my pain. It kept me going, it started to bring me back to life, and it gave me a reason to look forward to the next morning and not just my boudoir shoot months down the road.
I don't typically share a lot about myself, but I wanted to share this. I didn't expect anything to come of it, not anything other than giving me a little connection to the outside world again, but here I am. That's how Throbbin' Noggin Art was born and that's how I got here. A featured artist for Bzz Box. I want to thank Bzz Box for seeing something in my art and giving me this opportunity to share it with you.
