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.

Splendid this bottom and all this magic brought I adore a work which shows us a capacity and returns to us like satisfied with our viewing. Cheer still my Beautiful For all these exploits and mile mercies You merits praises and benefits and it should well be said rather often to bring a smile and to make the Artist vulnerable to his joy ((5++)) Magnifique ce fond et toute cette magie apportées .J'adore une oeuvre qui nous démontre un pouvoir et nous rend comme satisfait de notre visionnement . Bravo encore ma Belle. Pour tout ces exploits et mile mercis .Tu mérites éloges et bienfaits et il faut bien le dire assez souvent pour apporter un sourire et rendre l'Artiste vulnérable à sa joie ((5++))

WOW! OOOhhh! Woah!!! This is a gorgeous image, fantastically realized! It has a wonderful ethereal quality to it, but it's also grounded in a somewhat more concrete reality as well; I love the way it straddles that border. Fantastic work, Mina! I love it and it's most definitely a favorite!
