Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility under the required minimum of three regulatory criteria. While the Director acknowledged the petitioner met the criteria for published material and display of her work, the AAO found the evidence was insufficient to demonstrate her original contributions were of major significance to the field. The AAO concluded that favorable reviews, reference letters, and successful art sales did not prove a broader impact on the artistic field as a whole.
