Mentor Huebner at 29

Friday January 30, 2004
mentor1a-blog.jpg Louise Huebner, who deserves credit for getting the "Artists You Should Know" ball rolling, meant for all of us to see this image of her husband, Mentor Huebner. Mentor painted this mirror image of himself at age 29, and wasn't he a handsome man, as well as talented? (I apologize for the tiny image, all; the space constraints we Guides work with are just murder on images.)

Louise asked "Could you use an image?" and I just about fell over myself replying. In case anyone else has that same question, my answer is always yes. If you own the rights to an image and want me to run it in conjunction with a profile, please send it along with your suggested artist. Words can't describe how hard image permissions are to come by. That said, I'd like to direct your attention to Mark Harden's Artchive. Almost all of the images you see here, throughout this site, are a result of Mark's generosity. So thanks again, Louise, and thanks also to Mark Harden, who helps out this newbie Guide every single day.
