Article about a sculptor sourced only to an online CV. I can't see any independent news coverage about him. Speedy deletion template was removed with no explanation. Fails WP:GNG and WP:ARTIST as far as I can see. Sionk (talk) 21:55, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep I added some more info and references. I did find an art dealer's catalog where one of his sculptures was listed at a price of 20K-30K pounds, which seems considerable, but I wasn't sure it would be a viable reference. LaMona (talk) 01:18, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep - Seems to meet WP:ARTIST 4: "The person's work... has become a significant monument" due to creating "Armagh City's first commissioned public artwork" (per the BBC). Has created several other publicly-displayed sculptures too, as evidenced by the article. It's a little borderline, but I'm inclined to favour retention in this case.
