Does not appear to have been particularly notable. May have received a few mentions in national media, being used as an example of the type of “eccentric” individuals running long-shot/vanity candidacies in the 2003 CA gubernatorial recall, but that does not really demonstrate individual notability.

Delete - There is no indication that this artist is notable, the article "sourcing" is all external links that are 404's, or go to low quality sites (not reliable sources) that do not mention him (other than the one interview by his alma mater, which is a primary source therefore does not count towards notability). A search brought up blogs, user-submitted listings, social media, and PR-advertorials. Other than the fact that he has a cool name, I'm not finding that he passes WP:GNG for WP:NARTIST criteria for inclusion. Netherzone (talk) 17:31, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep There is this eight minute LA Times video for starters. There are other mentions across books and newspapers, in addition to the coverage of the election. I would not say he meets any aspect of NARTIST, but a weak case can be made that he meets GNG. --- Possibly ☎ 19:54, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
