I did some searching and couldn't find much in-depth coverage in RSes. The sources linked seem to be her own books. The closest thing to sigcov is this LA Weekly piece I found but it looks like it was sponsored and isn't enough on its own anyway. BuySomeApples (talk) 03:10, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn by nominator in light of the sources found by DaffodilOcean, nice work! BuySomeApples (talk) 02:19, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - there is also an extended article in the Los Angeles Times that was in the article when it was nominated for deletion. I have added some more sources as well. One paper referred to her as "one of the few who reach fame in this genre of art". DaffodilOcean (talk) 22:57, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - there is coverage of her in multiple reliable sources. The Los Angeles Times published an almost-full page article on her in 2008.^[1] Sources on erotic art call her a 'leading artist'^[2] or 'one of the few to achieve fame'.^[3] She had a twenty-year span of working with the pinup model Bettie Page,^[4] see that WP page for multiple references to De Berardinis. For those interested in finding additional sources, she uses the single name 'Olivia' as an artist which can provide too many sources. DaffodilOcean (talk) 11:03, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
