Born April 7, 1949, Fernando Llort was a world-renowned Salvadoran artist. His artwork sparked an artisan movement around El Salvador's agricultural workers. He taught them how to use their artistic ability to make a living. As a result, the town's agricultural faction quickly transformed into an artisanal atmosphere, generating jobs outside of farming. To this day, Fernando Llort's art continues to inspire many to try their hand at artistry!

Vibrant and Educational

Growing up and going to El Salvador we saw this beautiful artwork in the street and through vendors., I never knew that it was this amazing artist who started this specific artwork. Thank you for educating me and my family with this beautiful book of my culture! I'm feeling more proud now knowing about Llort's story!
