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.

You did an amazing job of imaging the magic radiating from the red figure, who must be a teacher or master. All the sparkles and sworls. The fogging contributes to the element of mystery

super composition

This is great, especially the way the colors pull together without washout. This is just my opinion, but the girl in white seems out of place to me...again, just opinion.

Oh, Mina!! I am so honored by this, and to say it's beautiful is an under-exaggeration...this is superb! It hits me right through the soul. I really treasure this artwork, you are such an inspiration! I wish I could come up with more words to express myself, but at the moment I am too overwhelmed! Greatest Blessings my sister, Jane
