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.

Hey I think that would make a terrific card - I love the quotes: here's a few more for you collection: Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired. Robert Frost Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age. Jeanne Moreau Love is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke. Lynda Barry Cheers & hugs Mike

What love? A mouth with the pretty lips, a word engraved on wood, a bored heart of an arrow, with the initial ones of the good liked? What to like? A thought to be expensive to it? will dreams where its liked well, see all the treasures of the world? What love? A sheet of tree sh between two pages of a book of bedside? The ' posession' of the other? Does the love change during a life? The answer, not is not in your Mina image, but the marks of the love are there surely Merci Mined of this pretty tale.

nikolais
perfect palette and design. never been able to find the right expression of love. you have.
froznlife42
Honey, you should think about having that design printed out on stationary and cards. Valentine's Day and all those other "love" days. You may have just landed onto something big here. I know there are places out there that look for "fresh ideas" all the time. If anything.... start looking at the back of some cards, checking for contact information. Don't forget to "sign" your work somewhere too. It really is beautiful. Fantastic job Girl.
