Seems like a hard-working commercial artist, but he has not won any awards or had specific juried showings of his art. The references go to blogs, commercial sites, galleries of illustrations and material written by the subject of the article (including a Twitter feed).

Keep I have partially re-written the article, and taken out mention of social media weblinks and links to commercial sites. I have added several new references, and also moved many of the references that had been in the external link section up into the body of the article as inline citations. Referring to Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals the subject has "significant or well-known work" such as all of the work and projects with Nike Inc. and has received significant coverage in "multiple independent periodical articles". The subject meets WP:GNG and meets the notability requirements WordSeventeen (talk) 05:23, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I have covered and backed up all of the work that is mentioned in this article. I found many sourses and cited them. I made sure that all of the material that lead to journals, books and blogs are not written by the artist. The article now meets the requirements--Mike1582 (talk) 20:09, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: The article is continuing to be infected by WP:Original research from websites which are not WP:Reliable sources, like this very recent one. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 06:15, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

keep this is a new article and instead of being deleted it sould be included on wikipedia art projects to invite experienced wikipedians in the fields of art to contribute. This artist totally meets the notability criteria. Grigoros (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 14:01, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If he is so Notable why are not Reliable sources taking note of him? BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 03:39, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Here are some Reliable sources that took note of Alexis Marcou. Future plc, Core77, Juxtapoz, Imagine Publishing, Behance, Adobe Systems, Derwent Cumberland Pencil Company.--Mike1582 (talk) 12:17, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
