The result was delete. Consensus is that sourcing isn't there to merit a standalone article. If someone wants to work on this in draft, happy to provide, but if it's going to molder we'll delete now vs. in six months. Star  Mississippi  00:24, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NARTIST. Nothing in the article or elsewhere online can be found to contribute towards notability. Edwardx (talk) 23:24, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Artists and United Kingdom. Shellwood (talk) 23:43, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete - Mentioned as an exhibitor in a number of shows, but nothing is substantially focused on him specifically as a major artist. Doesn't meet WP:NARTIST. Tony Fox (arf!) 04:30, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I added a reference to an article at the Egan Maritime Institute site. I also added VIAF link to wikidata. However, I think the subject is a working commercial artist and not enough coverage or evidence to show WP:NARTIST. WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 15:23, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems to be a renowned marine artist: his print titled ‘R.M.S. Titanic Leaving the White Star Dock, Southampton, 10th April 1912’, has been rated by a leading Titanic historian as ‘the best painting of the Titanic ever produced’ and from the Southern Daily Echo; the exhibition ​“Fleeing Famine: Irish Immigration to North America, 1845 – 1860,” built around his work and in the Hartford Courant; described as an Internationally renowned artist in the Irish Echo Piecesofuk (talk) 20:06, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Even with the additional sources provided by Piecesofuk, this still does not meet any of the criteria for WP:NARTIST. Heartmusic678 (talk) 14:46, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Move to draft to allow further time for research and improvement. If improvement is not thereafter forthcoming, the article will be deleted in due course. BD2412  T 19:16, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
