ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This is "Varon III", the third piece of my series "Varones" (males). In "Varones" I try to explore masculity. What makes these boys men? Do they look like men? Often, people tell me they look pretty, the pretty "girls" in these paintings. I think it's the long hair, or is it because they're "pretty"? Are men not allowed to be pretty? Does it make them less of a man? Is there something wrong with being feminine, or looking feminine? This one, "Varon III", he's okay with it. Male, female, it's all good to him. He's a man, he knows he's a man, he's got nothing to prove to me or to you. He's happy, this one, his eyes are closed because he's not thinking of it. He's most likely thinking of the cake in the fridge he wants to eat so bad. He's on the right side of "Varon II"; he shields him, along with "Varon I" on the left, from the opinions that hurt him. "Varon II" is sensitive, he wishes things wound't affect him so much, more so coming from people he doesn't care about, but more often than not we can't choose what hurts us and what doesn't. Lucky for him, "Varon III" is here to support him.

Roselin Estephanía (March, 1994), born in Barquisimeto, Venezuela. With more than a decade of experience, she is a Venezuelan artist focused on watercolor. Her style tends to blend surrealism with realism in a mix of pure fantasy. Her collectors are attracted to her unique aesthetic in her original paintings: "her watercolor paintings seem to come straight from her heart". For Roselin, her art is her most faithful way of transmitting both the beautiful and the saddest parts of life. She attended the University of Zulia to study Plastic Arts, she finished her specialty mention in drawing. In the beginning it was difficult for her to sell her original paintings, as she felt very attached to them, feeling them very personal, but the fact that there are collectors all over the world buying them makes her feel that her message is understood, and that what she is trying to communicate is appreciated. ​
