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.

very dark and sombre; colours and look fit the idea perfectly.

This one needs to be a bit larger, so we don't lose too much detail in the darkness of the image. Comp and coloring work well together, lending a semi-mysterious feel to the piece - was that what you were going for...? I suspect this one would be a knockout as a large high-res image...but I can't be sure cuz I can't see enough detail - LOL! Peace and love, Gene

You have perfectly captured the fragmented, dull, intense, and futile feelings of mourning. Thoughts and sentences half started and abandoned; the frustration of being invisible and simultaneously too sharply seen; the connect/disconnect of having to continue in a world where nobody knows the universe has recently stopped expanding. Intense image, Dear One!

Nurzu is exactly right, you truly are the Queen of Mood! This has such a fantastic texture to it and a great frame around her. Wonderful, Dear Queen of Darkness, Lady Mina! Keep doing what you do that you do so well. Scott

A strikingly powerful piece depicting much feeling.

Mmmm. Is she mourning? Or is she the mourned? Is morning forever gone for her? Is she doomed to walk in the darkness? Has she become one of those that feed in the darkness of night? Or is she merely in a black mood. Wonderous image, mysterious, leaving many questions

So sad! It looks as though she is looking at a canvas painting of a building, perhaps her home at one time. Maybe burned by fire, maybe loss of family. So many possibilities to explain her deep sadness. Beautifully done, Mina. You convey the mood very successfully. Hugs, x:)
JillianElf
Wow Mina! I think T said everything I feel, and I do like the wood print quality. Great title, and just a wonderful piece of work. Hugs :)
