Description
...this render is for my friend, Joan. We worked together for many years prior to her retirement. She has been recently diagnosed with a disease that does not have a positive ending. I ask for thoughts, prayers, meditations and kind wishes for a peaceful time for her right now, however your spirit leads you.
I always remember Joan sending me photographs of her riding her horses with her grandchildren and children. So, I dedicate this render to her and her years of loving friendship. There are not enough words to describe Joan in an appropriate manner. Best of the best comes to mind.
Also of note, this is my 75th render and also marks the end of my first year with Poser and Renderosity. I would like to thank all my "internet" friends and those who have helped me refine my work over the last year. You are all wonderful people and have been such a blessing to me personally. No, jherrith, I don't hold it against you -- since, you got me started on Poser -- instead, you have my thanks.
This render was extremely difficult for me to do from a personal standpoint, so, there are no product credits as I didn't make note of them when doing the render. I appreciate your understanding the lack of credits.
Please, feel free to leave comments and thoughts for Joan.
Say what you have to say today as tomorrow is not promised.......if you love someone, tell them now.
Later.

This is a beautiful image full of emotion. Our spirits (at minimum) live on through those we have touched and whose lives we have impacted during our short stays on this earth. It is clear that you friend's spirit will live on in a large number of people (like yourself) that that she has touched over the years. You have paid her a wonderful tribute here with both your artwork and your dedication. Great Big HUGZ, Kylee

Congratuations on your first year with poser! You are certainly progressing faster than I did. This is a lovely image and a most heartfelt dedication. I lost a close friend several years back, so I have an inkling of what you are going through... Your image is a celebration of her life and those people such as yourself that she has touched along the way! My prayers and thoughts are with Joan, her family, and frieds!

This is very kind, and I wish Joan the best. I've had many endings that did not come as I would have wished. Steve http://ethesis.blogspot.com/

How incredibly touching this render is -- you must be very close to this person. The emotion that you captured in the face of the female is incredible. The horse just seems to have the expression of "knowing" what is wrong. Total excellence in your work and beautiful tribute to your friend.

Ahh This is beautiful I am moved to say this.. Dear Lord, If it is destined that you're bringing this daughter home, please make the journey easy and lovely. If her destiny is to find a cure as we all hope..please keep her without pain and give her strength. Amen Lighthouse, congratulations on your 1st anniversary.

I just wanted to post an update to Joan's health. She has been sent home and all treatment has been stopped. She has round the clock care from Hospice and her family. She is comfortable but not aware of much that goes on. They feel she may make it through the holidays but are not sure. Please continue to keep her in your prayers and thoughts. Thank you all for everything. Once again, if you love someone, tell them today for tomorrow they may not understand or may not be here to tell. =o(
