Armando Chacon

Guatemalan Visual Artist; An Plein air painter, Muralist and Studio Painting. You can find me all over Metro Atlanta area creating unique and original works of art.

I am a multifaceted artist whose journey began in Guatemala and continues to evolve in the vibrant city of Atlanta, where I’ve lived for over 9 years. With more than three decades of experience, my work reflects a lifelong commitment to capturing the soul of nature, the rhythm of events, and the depth of human emotion through painting. My artistic voice moves fluidly between surrealism, abstraction, and impressionism, each style offering a unique way to interpret the world around me. Whether I’m painting En plein air in the Southern light, working from the quiet of my private studio, or creating large-scale murals in public spaces, my brushes become instruments of storytelling. As an award-winning plein air, studio, and mural artist, I explore both the external landscapes and the internal ones—bringing memories, dreams, and colors into harmony. My murals throughout Atlanta are extensions of this vision: bold, expressive, and rooted in cultural dialogue.
