My entry to the "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 56"

in #payitforward6 years ago

This is my entry for the Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 56 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 want to present you with a couple of artists from Venezuela: @pecesitaaleja and @lionsaturbix.

Here's the preview of both featured posts:

#1 - @pecesitaaleja (36)

Alejandra joined the Steem Network 7 months ago, on September 22, 2018. She posted only 3 times... before disappearing until now. This week, @pecesitaaleja returned with a couple more posts and it looks like she's venturing into portrait paintings.

The featured post I picked is:

@pecesitaaleja was absent for a long time, but being from Venezuela, who can blame her? She probably had other priorities in her mind. Let's hope Alejandra sticks around this time.

#2 - @lionsaturbix (51)

Also from Venezuela, Leonardo Olivo is an artist who joined Steem on January 11, 2019 and he is a very regular and consistent blogger!

His works have a very clear and defined style, with a "cartoony" feel to them and @lionsaturbix's latest work is no exception:

ntopaz-image-0

@lionsaturbix is a good example of consistency... and that is why he got a reputation of 51 in just 4 months! I'm always happy to see a new work from him.

# Final Thoughts

At the time I'm writing this, both posts have little rewards, with $0.33 and $0.23, which is ridiculously low.

I think @pecesitaaleja and @lionsaturbix are very talented artists and I hope they can keep growing and evolving their talents using this platform. Seeing both of them are from Venezuela, maybe @lionsaturbix can help @pecesitaaleja with a few hints?


I'd like to point out that the NTopaz project is giving an awesome support to artists 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.

Those are great artists - will take a look at both :)

Nice picks as usual @trincowski 😉 supported both the artist. It's really interesting that even when you live in a country like venezuella.. you can't avoid the K-wave influence😉

You always find the good ones. Gonna go show them some steem love.
