Seems to fail notability criteria for artists. Basically he's a talented promising young artist not yet out of art college. Some coverage used as cites, but is it sufficient? I doubt it at this point, much as I wish Sandile Nzuza continued success. Mabalu (talk) 19:47, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

- Delete: An article previously speedy-deleted as promotional, contributed from a :WP:SPA account. The given references are from a dealership in emerging artists, and an online article which uses the first person. No evidence found that the subject meets the notability criteria at this point.

- Delete Notability doesn't come from a listing by a commercial gallery selling the artist's work, and l see no evidence that he meets WP:ARTIST. Language like claims that his "creative ability and technical genius has been apparent making him stand out from the crowd" indicate that the purpose of this article is promotional. An extensive unreferenced quotation from the artist violates policy. Perhaps some day, this artist will be notable, but not yet. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 04:09, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
