Artist definitely exists, but seems to not be notable enough for Wikipedia. I found a ton of mentions of his work, but nothing approaching "significant coverage" of him or his works. Primefac (talk) 10:42, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Grabner, Michelle (1 December 2009). "Doug Ischar: GOLDEN". Artforum. Retrieved 23 May 2015.
  • [1] - be cautious with this source, because it is a tabloid; however the coverage is not on a topic that tabloids are inaccurate at (e.g. serious medical studies).
