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 have already settled it for myself so flattery
and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free.

I'd love to spend an afternoon here, goggling at all the wonders! And skritching that amazing kit! An evening in front of that fireplace must be enchanting! Healing thoughts on their way @ your tooth. Try oil of clove it deadens the pain for a while if you don't mind the taste. BJ

I cannot resist cute cat photos or images. This is just wonderful. I am so happy to be owned by cat. Have been the last 30 years and I never loose my fascination.

I needed this image.....what a hoot! My sympathies on the tooth....last bad tooth I had resulted in the hospital taking ALL my teeth out!!! I was not impressed....no tooth aches now though. My character is built...lol!

Oh! Mina!! Is this Cody? What an exquisite shade of marmalade! Did you pose him like this? Or is he professionally cute? I have a cat statue very similar to the one Cody is snuggling up to, but black, and a little bigger. The dogs still bark at it if I move to an unfamiliar location, LOL. Gracie Anne gives it a woof or two, looks at me knowingly, and laughs!! I hope your tooth gets better ASAP .. concentrated healing thoughts coming in your direction ..

Sorry about the tooth, I got mad at mine several years ago and had them all removed. I have two red tabbies amongst my hoard and this is a perfect image. He must be quite a character and with such a great name. Beautiful shot.

More than just a cute cat shot. I find it very interesting that he is snuggling up to the statue of a cat. Boy, does that raise a bunch of questions in my mind. This is a fabulous shot, Mina. Take care of that tooth, my dear. Sorry you have to suffer this pain, you character you! Hugs, Suzanne X:)

Well I certainly feel for you and your tooth! I pray it gets better soon. What an incredible capture! Your kitty is certainly beautiful and such a wonderful mood this image sets. Take care!
