Estefany's work focuses on figurative painting. She makes expressive family portraits through an active, emotional process. Making use of color-blocking, compositional play, and the spatial interaction of human figures, the more freedom she has with the marks, the better the outcome. By painting from photographic sources, her work presents a rendering of reality, removed from objectivity through mark-making. This approach allows her the freedom to create and determine an abstracted narrative around the interplay of the subject matter within the figure-ground relationship.
