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.

Very interesting portrait, Mina! Her expression is cute, and the colour scheme is nice. And yes, thank the Gods Obama got in office, maybe now the rest of the world will take us seriously again. Ugh. I'm glad the eight years of the Bush administration are over and done.

Beautiful artwork Mina!!

She does look a bit Columbian. My interest of course is purely in embroidery for ID patches.

Wonderful image! Googled Grex and got 1,450,000 hits and not just orchids or gene pools, though I think that certain people who lost last night, their parents met in the shallow end of the gene pool. Well done
