To all of my mother's Renderosity friends:
It saddens me to no end to tell you that my mother, Mina, passed on May 31st, from endometrial cancer. She is survived by my father, Roger, and myself. I apologize for not letting you all know sooner, but her passing has left me with a broken heart and it is very hard to write this, even now. I don't suppose there will ever come a time that it will be easier.
I know how much she loved you all, how much it meant to her to have met such wonderful people, and how much it meant to her to create & share her art with you. I am leaving her work here for a while, as tribute to her, her beauty, her talent & her love.
Brightest Blessings to you all!
Heather
 Mina's daughter
Thanks to all for stopping by and hope you enjoy your visit.

"I get out my work and have a show for myself before I have it publicly.
I make up my own mind about how good or bad or indifferent it is.
After that the critics can write what they please.
I have already settled it for myself so flattery
and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free.

Oh my God Mina! You've actually brought me to tears! I didn't expect this at all. Wow!!! Let me see if I can collect my thoughts real quick. Until a few months ago it appeared that no one really took my photography as seriously as I do. Then my cousin, elfenone, told me how to get onto this site. With the help of everyone here... I'm becoming an even better artist. Through your kind words and gentle guidance, you've all helped me see the world in different ways. For that alone... I'll forever be grateful to you all. I feel honored and humbled to be included into this world of magnificent artists. Thank You so much for all the love you've shown. I send a big kiss & hug to you all!!! Much love, Rhonda.

Thank you for the links to Alfred Stieglitz since i admire his work, though I think there were several others from that time period more adventured as he was more of a traditionalist. Beautiful dedications. Thank you for sharing.
