I've been told many times and observed it that when a person has epilepsy their artistic abilities show through that they never knew they had. Painting photography, poetry playing instruments etc. I have seen their works in books. Anyone experience it

Its interesting. Everyone's art is Amazing! I'm not sure but my conclusion is that the seizures (electricals) when they fire they 'wake up' that arty area of the brain at the time
I have been told about it from epilepsyact and seen books but I can't remember
what the conclusions were. The main one that has stuck in my brain is, photos and each photo describes what she going through while having a seizure. I didn't understand it at all . I just thought this photographer has a screw loose. It makes sense now and fascinating.

That sure is a handsome bloke you are drawing, Mark. He wouldn't happen to be Irish too?
Below is a self-portrait... me in the past, present, and the future. The three are just a fraction apart at all times. Be good my friend.
