The creator of this article acknowledges that this biography is OR (see notes below the images). Thus also fails WP:V. WP:BIO is in question as well. Perhaps if the author publishes this original research elsewhere, we'll be reconsidering this in the future. Planetneutral 20:36, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

• Delete notability is not present. Tyrenius 00:36, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Violation of WP:OR, fails WP:BIO. Nothing here indicates that the subject is any different from the thousands of artists who have dumped their works on the "Starving Artists" art sales that are advertised on late night TV. Caknuck 01:49, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. The most notable reference I could find was [1], which is a bit scary. John Vandenberg 01:55, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nom, although Caknuck is not quite correct as article asserts he had a gallery for some years. But no assertions of exhibitions, works in public collections etc, which would usually be the key tests in such a case. Johnbod 15:11, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Having a self-run gallery could be something as elaborate as a storefront gallery in a posh neighborhood or a converted garage in his house. Without context, it means nothing. (On another notes, isn't it odd that his commercial "sell-out" phase started when he met his wife? Just throwing something out there... heh.) Caknuck 16:08, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
