Please turn off any type of filtering from "Color and size" tab - by default Variety is set to use landscape-sized images only.
If this does not help, please do send the config file, and also a log file - run Variety with "-v" flag, let it run for some time, try to change the wallpaper 10 times, confirm no pics from aria_giovanni have been shown, the log file will be in ~/.config/variety/variety.log, attach it here along with the config file.
