Biographical

The user practices, teaches and writes about art stuff. His work has demanded that he spend much time in the presence of unclothed people, some of whom are more than moderately attractive, for which he is grateful. He is the subject of a Wikipedia biography, which confirms his suspicion that the notability guidelines need revisiting.
