I'm not convinced this person meets WP:BIO or WP:ARTIST. Most of the supplied coverage is not WP:SIGCOV like it merely confirms his work was exhibited. Would need some more independent coverage like mainstream press. LibStar (talk) 23:57, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: As the subject lack WP:SIGCOV, as evidenced by my Google News search, which yielded only limited coverage from a decade ago and passing mentions. After considering these findings, I initially contemplated voting to "Draftify" the article. However, my further exploration of the artist's social media revealed a post stating that their artwork had been suspended. This development suggests that it is unlikely this person will receive any substantial future coverage that would allow the article to meet the criteria for significant coverage. The combination of the article's lack of significant coverage and the suspension of the artist's work means it currently does not pass both WP:SIGCOV and WP:NARTIST.❯❯❯ Chunky aka Al Kashmiri (✍️) 09:12, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I am not finding any reliable sources on the artist. Fails WP:ARTIST, no notable exhibitions or collections found. WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:12, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
