My name is Jorge Oramas and I am known as the painter of light. My life was marked by the imprint of illness and poverty. However, despite all the darkness of my life, my work exudes luminosity and joy. In this book, I invite you to know my story: a story marked by adversity, but also by beauty. I painted everything I could and portrayed with intense colors the island where I was born, Gran Canaria. I dyed my life in gray with vivid tones, and that is why I became one of the most important artists of 20th century Canarian painting.
