Martha Cooper, co-author of the seminal book Subway Art, described him as 'a prolific practitioner of elegantly executed hand-styles.'Faust was featured throughout two of Cooper's most recent books, Going Postal and Name Tagging. Faust was also published in Graffiti New York by Luke Felisbret, Definition: The Art and Design of Hip Hop by Cey Adams and Graffiti 365 by Jay Edlin, which features the following excerpt: 'Among all the amateur scribbling and indecipherable hieroglyphics that make up the average tagger's landscape, a skilled hand at penmanship is a rarity.'
