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.

Is this a hawk? In that case this would signify the essence of strength, foresight and truth. Well done dearest Mina. HUGS

Exceptionally suburb! The kind of relief one would expect to find on an ancient wall, made only better by age! The rough loss of detail though passage of time speaks true of the enduring but often restless spirit of the hawk. Who even here seems just on the verge of escaping the mural to take wing!

A very moving piece Mina and humbling for me. There is some very real truth in peoples comments here. I have been restless and uncomfortable with society all my life.I dislike lies and respect those who respect truth. Strength was acquired at an early age in order to enable me to survive. To all those here on this page and to you Mina, I send you my thanks for simply being you. Artists are a great tribe to belong to.....Mitakuye Oyasin mi kola!( I felt compelled to rate this 5...LOL)
