My entry to the "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 46"
This is my late entry for the Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 46 hosted by @pifc.
The rules of this challenge are very simple: Feature 2 High Quality Original Content Blog Posts from Steemians with a reputation score of 55 or under.
This week I bring you two artists from Venezuela: @giomatos and @marylucy.
Here's the preview of both featured posts:

#1 - @giomatos (32)
Giovanna Matos joined the Steem Network only a couple of weeks ago, on February 5, 2019. She describes herself as a Graphics and Illustrator Artist in Progress.
@giomatos has published a new post just 4h ago, but I decided to feature her Introduction post instead.
In her post, she presents herself, talks about her work and goals and promises to share her artworks in her following posts. She has written the post in English, as well as Spanish.

I hope @giomatos sticks around for a while and doesn't give up soon, because she seems to be talented enough to survive and even thrive on this platform.

#2 - @marylucy (53)
María Paula Hernández (artistic name Mary Lucy) is a 19 years old Artist from Venezuela who has been blogging in the Steem Network since July 27, 2018. She uses this platform to talk about her favourite things, one of which are bonsais and also to display her artistic skills.
In the post I've selected from @marylucy she shows us a drawing made for a mythpunk novel, called Ragnarok Conspiracy (written by @pibara.)

@marylucy has a very interesting and defined style and this mythpunk novel she's working on with @pibara sounds promising.

# Final Thoughts
At the time I'm writing this, both posts have little rewards, with $0.18 and $0.04, which is very, very low, seeing the amount and quality of work both artists have put on these publications.
In my opinion @giomatos and @marylucy have great artistic skills and I hope they can be successful in this network. If they don't give up, I'm sure they'll build a fanbase and will be happy here.
I'd like to point out that the NTopaz project is exclusively dedicated to artists and their artworks and I believe you can take advantage of this, to increase your exposure on this platform. (You can use your STEEM keys to login at that site; Any post from NTopaz will be automatically visible in SteemIt.)
Please give them some love and support. Any help is appreciated.

If possible, I'll be buying 2 SBI (@steembasicincome) shares - one for each artist - with the rewards from this post.

Я тебя понял.
Про себя - я подумаю.
Hi!
It's a honor receive your support and your words, you're very kind. This make me very very very happy and excited! Thanks for considering my work as good content. I want to continue posting on Steemit because I support this ecosystem a lot. And I hope improve here ^^(this one is a good opportunity), is my goal.
Thanks support Venezuelans, we are passing for difficult situations now, any help count.
By the way, my real name is María Paula N. Hernández and I'm 20 years old 😊🙋. Fernandez is just a family joke, and my instagram nick "marylucyfenandez" too that's why my artistic name is MaryLucy (short version).
Greetings and all the best wishes of success. Bye!
Oh, I see. Don't worry, dear. I'll correct that in a while! 😊
