Fanny Consuelo Jaime was born on 20 May 1966 in Boyacá, Colombia.
She was born with Charcoth Marie (also known as: CMT, hereditary motor sensory neuropathy, morbus charcot-marie-tooth).
Until she was five years old, she could walk normally like all children. After that, the strength in her legs, hands and then arms began to fade.
Thanks to her mother and sister, she was able to overcome this difficult time.
Despite these health problems, she completed her undergraduate studies and gave birth to a daughter.
She suddenly discovered her talent for painting. She has learned no technique and only paints what her eyes or her friends see. That is why she gave one of her paintings the title “Wonderful Family”.
