[edit]

I think the Lead is a good start, but I definitely think you can buff it up! You should ensure that the main headings of the article are somehow included into the Lead. That being said, you should briefly name a couple of her most famous works, name her awards, etc. Also, I think it could be really helpful to include her birth date; it could even give more context to the time period she was active in (which is very important to establish in the Lead). As far as content, I think what you supplied was very relevant. I especially appreciate how the Bio section went into detail about her upbringing of being inspired to do art. Including information regarding her father's passing was also very significant and relevant as well. Overall, I think you've hit all of the main points as far as content. If want, I think you could elaborate more on the "Assumptions" portion of the Artworks section (just so it can match the same amount of information as the other two works), the details of her knitwear business, and the part talking about her difficulties with identity (since it seems to be a major factor in her inspirations of her artwork). Just a small suggestion though! You do an amazing job staying and sounding neutral! You are missing the citations/references of some information (specifically, the information in the "Exhibitions & Collections" and "Honors & Awards" sections. Be sure to cite that info. Other than that, I believe that the sources that you've used are reliable and are very relevant to your topic. Good job on that! I think most improvement can be seen with the organization of the article, however. Most notably, be sure to change "Bibliography" into "Biography". Also, the reference notes should come after the punctuation, not before it. There's also quite a lot of grammar errors, but that can easily be fixed through a proofread run-through. The article meets Notability requirements. I think you can really benefit from including an infobox. To do this, go on Edit mode, click Insert, click Template, and search for "infobox artist". Overall, great work! --Adist001 (talk) 06:21, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
