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.

The jewel green of her hair is awesome. It makes her look like a piece of fine porcelan and emeralds.

I am pleased you have found a place in the sun. Sometimes I watch artists growing or just see amzingly imaginative things but don't look or comment on them in the expanded view. Yours is one of the names I instantly recognize that has never come to my gallery. This usually is enough to keep me away. Now I think you have nothing to fear from whatever I say. So light, so patient, so effortless in substance.

The great Taoist master Chuang Tzu once dreamt that he was a P-51 Mustang fighter plane dog fighting here and there. In the dream he had no awareness of his individuality as a person. He was only a fighter plane. Suddenly, he awoke and found himself laying there, a person once again. But then he thought to himself, "Was I before a man who dreamt about being a P-51 Mustang fighter plane, or am I now a P-51 Mustang fighter plane who dreams about being a man?" Such is the conundrum of flying in dreams. Well done dearest Mina! HUGS
