It is far too soon for an emerging artist to have an encyclopedia article when they have not even had a chance to a create a body of work that could eventually receive critical attention in reliable sources. As it is, not only is there no coverage, there is nothing to cover. Vexations (talk) 13:24, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he has a stronger notability claim. Every artist is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because he exists — the notability test requires him to have reliable source coverage about him, such as critical analysis of his work and/or evidence that he's won a notable art award. But two of the three footnotes here are just primary source "staff" profiles on the self-published websites of galleries he's been directly affiliated with, which are not support for notability, and the only one that comes from a reliable source media outlet is not covering him in the context of accomplishing anything that would pass WP:CREATIVE, but in the context of advocating for something to be done about an issue — and regardless of where you come down on the question of whether that helps to support notability or not, it doesn't secure notability all by itself if it's the only notability-contributing source in the pool. Even just passing WP:GNG takes quite a bit more than just one valid footnote. Bearcat (talk) 15:27, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete I found another reference and added that the article, but agree it is too soon, or else he is known for only one thing.WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:48, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
