Annotation: Born April 7, 1949, Fernando Llort was a world-renowned Salvadoran artist. His artwork sparked an artisan movement among 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 transforned into an artisanal atompshere, generating jobs outside of farming. To this day, Fernando Llort's art continues to inspire many to try their hand at artistry!
