Try as I might I cannot see how this person passes our Notability threshold. I see an article on a jobbing illustrator performing their job well, but many jobbing illustrators exist and perform their jobs well. What I cannot see is inherent notability
Keep As found in the last AFD he gets significant coverage
[6] I click the search for reliable sources link at the top of the AFD and I find this

Comment I'm always wary around
WP:BLP articles because they can start to be a magnet for inaccuracies or worse. I did find this other source from another
regional publication, and it's not clear it meets the standard for reliability. I need editors more well-versed in this type of article to make the call.

Weak delete: Article is poorly sourced and some links mentioning is coverage aren't really reliable, such as podcasts and Yahoo! News. I could not find any news feature that highlights and reviews specific works that he is known for.

Keep the Yahoo article tips the scales, along with a few other sources that are at least borderline. Should be rewritten to ensure no
WP:BLP violations.
