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.

A delightful and inspiring image! The green is so perfect, reminding us of the Life Giver. A beautiful lady and her expression is so soft and so delicate. She seems totally in awe by something, just as I am when I look at this image. Excellent, masterful artwork Mina.... wishing you all the best for the New Year. I really look forward to seeing more of your creations, as they are always uplifting and inspirational to me.

Well I hope you have the spot for the AOM Award dusted and ready. You are bound to win. Love the title .. they used to believe that gazing at the full moon would cause Lunacy .. is she seeing Luna as it's reached it's fullness? Are those spirits circling around her, waiting for the right moment to push her over the edge .. into Luna See? Exquisitely done, Mina!!
