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.

Seems like the figure on the right is stuck between the past, represented by the woman behind the shards of glass, and the light coming in thru the window! Excellent work,Mina.

Powerful and emotional artwork!!! Brilliant work! -R5-

I see the figure on the right as if stuck in stone, perhaps remembering how one use to be, or perhaps a ghostly tale as others have mentioned. A rememberance of how one once was perhaps, the passing of time. The house reminds me of Dickens,..excellent image Mina and a good story this morning. :)

OH yes, it reminds me of my poor mother, who lost her memories from Alzheimer desease and now must live with only present time. It is a fantastic image, Mina and sometimes I wish I was better at finding the right words for commenting. Excellent expression.
