"Hello, my name is and Jairo Mora and I want to share my story with you - a tale of perseverance and love for art. Since I was young, my disability made me feel very lonely, but my mom and dad saw my interest in drawing and encouraged me to keep going. At the age of 14, I took my first steps into the world of art.

"At first, I was a reckless youth who didn't find a passion for art, I did it without much thought. But my mom never let go, even when she fell into a puddle while trying to take me to an artist's house in a taxi. Her unconditional love changed my life and made me realize that through art, I could give something back to her.

"Over time, I began to paint at fairs and live events, and thanks to the Artisans Foundation and my studies in Puerto Viejo, I specialized in the nature of Costa Rica. Art became my language and my passion.

"Despite my congenital malformation, particularly in my limbs, my mom was always there to support me and enhance my technique. I took courses at the National Learning Institute and my first artwork was exhibited in the artist's house in Costa Rica. Since then, I have showcased my works in galleries, fairs, and hotels, always painting wherever I go.

"In the next 10 years as a painter, I want to improve and not find my limit. I want to win awards and show other artists that I have an exceptional level of painting. I hope to achieve financial stability to be able to help my mom, who has always been my greatest motivation and source of inspiration.

"I want to thank God for supporting this dreamer and fighter. Every brushstroke is made with much love, and I hope the world will appreciate my creations. If one wants to be a great person, they have to be a great son, and that's why I'm eternally grateful to my mom and to everyone who has helped me along this journey.

Thank you for reading my story!"
