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 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.

What a masterpiece Mina. Boy this is somn. I see something cosmic in this. Love the expression in the woman's eyes. It is very hard to see what she think. Very mysterious expression.. The transparnet clouds has an amazing effect on the picture. It most certainly has your special style and touch. But it has something new too.. something i haven't seen in your work earlier on. Not sure what it is yet. Brilliant work.

it's like this woman is bursting out of a huge power in the earth, surrounded by celestial clouds and lights. It's a very earthy picture, evocative of wilderness and deep visioins. I even love how you put a sequence of planets/circles on her forehead. An organic billowing vision, made in passionate purples and deep reds, and an aftermath of a huge 'becoming'. It's sumptuous.
