Has had success, but doesn't have the coverage or significance of work to meet WP:ARTIST or WP:GNG. Has been in CAT:NN's backlog for over 11 years. Boleyn (talk) 18:31, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep finding sources was hard slogging, but it turns out that he has done a number of high profile public artworks over the last decade (two in subway stations and a 7 storey-tall mural on a building at the London School of Economics). The quality of the available sources is not spectacular, but there is no doubt that he meets some basic form of GNG, and it's also possible that he may meet NARTIST through the creation of a well-known body of public artworks. I have added a number of sources to the article. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 00:00, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - The subject's works are displayed as public artworks, many of them permanent, including the first public artwork commissioned by the London Overground. These works and their coverage show notability and meet WP:GNG. The subject also passes WP:ARTIST. AuthorAuthor (talk) 02:42, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
- Withdraw nomination per excellent points above. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 05:42, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
