The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (biographies) requirement. Yes, there are refs, but they are from blogs and niche websites, some of them as short as one paragraph. Interviews are also problematic per WP:INTERVIEW. I don't see any in-depth treatment in reliable sources, no awards, nothing that would help with WP:CREATIVE. PS. Author is a WP:SPA.

 * Delete as I concur, everything is especially simply unsuitable or simply not convincing as it is, none of it amounts to genuine substance regardless of anything that could be insinuated about this. SwisterTwister   talk  05:23, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete mentions in promotional media do not establish notability. "artwork has been featured in publications such as …" does not rise to the level of "substantial part of a significant exhibition", "significant critical attention" or "permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums". Fails WP:ARTIST. Mduvekot (talk) 22:36, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Fails WP:GNG. --  Dane talk  02:59, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
