A teenage artist in Afghanistan is inspiring people in the war-torn country by painting with her mouth.

Born without arms, 16-year-old Robaba Mohammadi has to stay at home while her siblings go to school. She taught herself to paint using her mouth and developed her talent for painting.

Though she is only able to paint for two hours a day, Robaba says she wants to teach people in her country that it is possible to earn a living even if you have a disability.
