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.

Excellent image! I know the novel well. it's a fave of mine. this catches the feel and mood very well. Although I like 'Apocalypse', it doesn't hold up to the book.

We share a part of ourselves with others, but there is a darkness and an intimacy with who we really are that is ours alone. Intriguing visual interpretation of the story. CC

Excellent Mina2Loose2Trek
With the ridiculous belief that the universe was created for mankind's benefit, the heart of darkness has ever ruled. I realize that's not what Conrad was writing about, but it's just the way things are IMHO. Excellent illustration Mina.

A very fascinating engraving... by looking at it I hear the music of Now Apocalypse! Sublime and obscure!!!

Wonderful, mysterious and lovely in colors. You make me want to read the book!

Glowing darkness! You've captured the ambiguosity of the The Heart of The Darkness so well. Brilliant colours. btw: For some existentialists life is always absurd! Inspiring picture, and words!

Great textures.
