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.

Sometimes the oldies are best! And this one certainly is.

Trying to decide if she created the whole thing, or she's just riding it out. Perhaps it depends on the mood of the viewer.

This would go well with the final movement of Berlioz's "Symphonie Fantastique." A wonderful mix of passion and nature. Excellent work, Mina. Bravo!

I've been out of the loop lately with posts, views and comments. This picture was so damn compelling, though. Great work! Is that an Apophysis flame? Wonderful composition and balance. It draws me, like a, like a. . .well, like a maelstrom.

Freaky, other-worldly, atrological Ambient colors of the human aura and soul...Words and stories in the feeling of colors and composition...Spooky, spiritual, dark, exotic, sensual, moving, spell-bound....Thanks for the review..I have been in a dark place lately...
