Article fails to demonstrate notability. Primary reason for notability seems to have been her misspelling of names, as an artist, in a commissioned mural. See WP:BLP1E. Only refs are an obituary and a Salon slide show caption (not usually a valid citation) about "tragic moments in spelling".  General Ization  Talk   23:05, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Please look outside of the article for sources. I found out that she's in the Smithsonian collection and she's written up in this Biographical Dictionary. She has works in the collections of several other museums. I'm updating her article. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 00:14, 2 September 2016 (UTC)
