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.

WOW!!! I'm very impressed and touched to of been included. (I love that image of myself. It's hard to believe I took it ... with no tripod.) I miss Velvet and her wonderful sense of humor. You've really got a great group of people that you call "friends". The feeling is definitely the same for you, my dear. I just haven't been able to find the perfect way to express my words to you. I guess I could start off with .. "I love you too, Mina." {{VOTE}}
