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.

your most amazing and magical one yet

your bluish-green images are really saturating your gallery of late, and they're just shimmering. It's another dreamscape, and your trees have an etched look like lightning or deep thoughts...You've done a wonderful webwork of organic lines and branches all over, and there seems to be a scroll-like writing underneath, like an ancient script that's whispering through it in goldish-greens. But above all, your woman seems to be walking in front of an arched place, an arched city; and it evokes some mysterious place of the soul; and your lights make it all the more transcendent. Enticing, beautiful & magical.

yup. I can relate to zombie mode very well lately. You've created another awesome work, and I love the colors!! I've a dress just those colors too (yes, I actually own a dress)! You've caught that sort of semi detached from the world mode so well, kinda zoned out like, not connecting well to what's going on around you .. well .. me, LOL.
