My entry to the "Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 20"
Another week, another entry for the Pay It Forward contest, hosted by @pifc! This is Week 20 already!!!
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.
I'll keep my streak going by featuring 2 artists who joined SteemIt very recently. Here's the preview of their artworks:
#1 - @maya525 (49)
Maya has joined SteemIt only 19 days ago. In her introduction post she presents herself as comic book writer. She is currently working on a comics called Ghost Life in Webtoon.
The post I'll feature from Maya is a very original drawing named Trapped Inside My Bubble
Can you believe she's only 15 years old?
Besides this excellent artwork, Maya also wrote a poem to accompany it. The post also includes a detailed step by step showing the progress of this piece. According to her, this work was fully developed using a smartphone. (¿For real?)
Despite having joined so recently, @maya525 already published a lot of phenomenal works.
This girl is a natural born talent! This platform is very lucky to have her. Please visit her post and welcome @maya525 to SteemIt.
#2 - @stuffing (55)
@stuffing doesn't share any personal info on the blog but from the avatar, I'm guessing the author is a girl.
@stuffing has begun sharing in SteemIt in May 2018, and has been posting her artworks quite regularly. Sometimes she ventures into somewhat philosophical posts, which are also very interesting.
Today, I'm featuring her most recent post, Phoenix Rising - Watercolour, a beautiful and colourful painting of a Phoenix, made in watercolour.
She includes a step by step progress of her painting, along with a few introduction lines where she talks about the concept of the Phoenix.
Please support @stuffing by giving her a few upvotes.
Both of these featured posts quickly grabbed the attention of @c-squared and @curie and deservedly so. Still, I hope you enjoy these artists and their works enough to add a few more votes and comments to their artworks.

Curation Contest - Week 20 of Paying it Forward
@cleverbot: Are you awake?
@trincowski signing out.
OmGGGG THANKYOU TRINCOWSKI 🙏🙏 thankyou so much!! I'm so flattered ;;v;; yes I am 15 years old and I'm going to be 16 soon, I feel like I'm getting too old sometimes XD
If some people don't believe me they can just check out my youtube channel named Maya 525, I posted there when I was 11/12 years old, so atleast I gave some identification? I'm not comfortable showing my face though XD
And yes, I used my smartphone, I have a PC though but I need to study first since my dad won't allow it haha so I just used my phone :>> still thankyou so much!!
I am lucky to meet this platform from a stranger!! (You know who you are if youre reading this stranger;)) ) I can finally monitize my work without censoring myself like other sites ;;v;;
@stuffing's art looks so good too! I'm glad you picked her :D anyways thankyou so much! I am grateful for you to appriciate my art and sharing it! :D
You're welcome. You have extraordinary skills for your age. Well done! 😃
Wooooow hello! Thank you so much for the inclusion in your entry, this has literally made my day. Yes I am a girl haha, I didn’t know this contest was around I need to check it out! Feeling the love :)
You're welcome!
Ah, ah! I'm glad I didn't miss that guess. That would have been awkward! 😅
Awkwardly amusing though! :P
Hey @stuffing, I voted/commented on your post before I realized @trincowski was featuring you. I'm one of the judges and would love to see you join us with an entry of your own next week :) You'd only have to do a post something like this, and it doesn't have to be artists either; just quality posts that you wish to share! @trincowski always manages to find great artists like yourself though!!
Thanks lynncoyle1, will I just use the pifc tag to enter?
Yes, and then you put your link in the contest post as a comment. Here's the week that we're just finishing, have a look and see how simple it is :) The new contest comes out on Tuesdays fyi !
Oh fantastic thank you! This is exciting, if I don’t make this one I will aim for the next one.
Sounds good @stuffing! No pressure whatsoever, but here's the link for this weeks' contest; it just came out today 😅
You really do have an eye for amazing artworks.
The fact that @maya525 is just 15 makes it even more awesome!
Really love the work by @stuffing too. Has a 'live free' kinda vibe. Love it!
Followed and upvoted both the artists too :)
I find it unbelievable myself!
Great choices! I've upvoted and commented on both features.
Thanks a lot for supporting both of them. 😋
No your brain is just not functioning properly.
Great selections; the artwork of your first choice is especially amazing!
Yeah, I knew I would. 😃

Rules for calling bot:
Красиво нарисован Феникс.
Но я его иначе всегда представлял. Здесь он агрессивный.
Beautifully drawn Phoenix.
But I always imagined it differently. Here he is aggressive.
I think it's quite beautiful, with all those awesome colours! 😃
2 really high quality entries @trincowski !
Enjoyed both of them.
Thanks a lot for passing by, @costanza! 😃
