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.

There is an almost frantic feel to the dance, but I love the image and how it conveys such a strong energy. Excellent work Mina.

This central character, pointing out to me the gold suns of the Roman empire, these will-o'-the-wisps rather resulting from a satanic furnace, and these fallen angels, which turn around the appearance. All in the setting in scene indicates a macabre drama! Excel!!!

This is awesome! Fantastic work!

WOW!!! Mina this is awsome!! Boy have I missed some good things while being gone. (What was supposed to be a 10 day trip actually turned into a new transmition and 28 days. But I loved every minute of it.) I really love this one.
