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.

Its beautiful Mina! Good title, too!
missundescriptive
I like the title its very creative, the piece is a good abstract and a good mix of colours were used to make things stand out and look colourful or raised.
nikolais
most of the palette and composition is just great

Your work is always so interesting to view...I really like the quote from Geaorgia O'Keeffe..beautiful work as always..

It is nice to see this from you, very powerfull and the "sane" part has meaning.

Wonderful abstract work Mina. I see a skull in the uppermost flower. That must be the insane part. The rest is lovely, well, even the skull too. I love the O'Keefe quote. She is one of my favorite artists too. Hope you had fun camping. ;)

Nice abstract visual accompanying this title Mina. Sublime rectangles, hinting windows and walls, the desire to explore (bluish-green), with passion and wisdom (rusty reddish-gold), and just a hint of purple (that which is unknown), with the beauty of roses contrasting against the corroded-looking background ...YUP! Love is never sane alright! Splendid subliminal work Mina! XOXOX 2U! Have a fantastic time camping!

Way to go Georgia!!!!!! She would've been one hell of a lady to meet. Going camping huh? There's just something about getting back in touch with good old Mother Earth. I haven't been camping in YEARS!!! My girlfriends idea of camping is getting a cottage somewhere. I don't mind a tent and open fire. Sounds like heaven!! Have a beautiful Easter my friend. I'll be thinking about you!!

This is wonderful.The color palette is most unusual...and works beautifully.This would make a wonderful painting,but maybe you already do that.It certainly looks like you do.Hope you enjoyed the camping...and love the quote from O'Keefe.I've always admired her.

Mina ! I agree ! you're right -it's excellent done art - even if I see here skeleton -maybe it's love to death and I hope life full of roses without thorns

Great use of color and a super concept. Broken roses and decay. There is both hurt and hope here. Wonderful image!
Darkwish
Nice, very nice work!
