Seems to be an aviation illustrator but despite some of the claims in the article I can't find anything at all about him anywhere online (discounting his website and his museum website) let alone significant coverage in reliable sources. The claim of raising money for charity is very worthy, but he produced over 6000 of these prints, so £100,000 doesn't indicate high value art. Fails WP:GNG and WP:ARTIST.

  • Weak delete This source says "one of Britain’s top aviation artists Geoff Nutkins".. but then goes on to promote him in a way that reads like a press release. Not sure what guardian-series.co.uk is and found very little else (the NewsShopper sources are not independent). -- Green Cardamom (talk) 09:25, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Delete I do believe he's very talented, but, I'm struggling to find multiple reliable secondary sources. SarahStierch (talk) 00:01, 13 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
