Biography of an artist, not properly sourced as having any strong notability claim under our inclusion criteria for artists. Two of the seven footnotes here are unnecessarily reduplicated twice each, instead of properly using the named-reference format, so there are really just five distinct sources -- but one of them is a user-generated directory to which anybody can add any artist regardless of their notability or lack thereof; one is the primary source website of an art gallery he was directly affiliated with; one just states the existence of a public library, instead of citing the specific publication details of any actual content held by the library; and one is a press release from a university. And the last is a real (albeit local) newspaper article, but it's about his widow, not him. All of which means that exactly zero of these sources add up to evidence of his notability at all.
