All facts from creator’s own site, scraped 2026-09-26 (knowledge/web-archives/jliaoart-*.md). No independent biographical detail (origin, training) on-site — pending.
Corpus re-grep 2026-10-01 (slice 09270315-7) over content/works + content/articles (EN + ZH: “Jay Liao”, “廖”): one hit — works/jliaoart-org/the-islands-story.md, the work page for his own series (creator credit + editing note only; already wikilinked from this page). No memoir or community-authored corpus material about Jay Liao; nothing absorbable beyond the existing record — recorded for auto-skip next audit.
