ARMANDO CHACON

Painter and creator, early on I knew what I wanted to do. I am a visual artist that mixes reality and imagination. I like to transport the viewer and escape to a world of imagination.

I was born in Guatemala. I have Spanish and Mayan roots, I create paintings to inspire the next generation; also, I interpret the world in a different and fun way, I do this by mixing different angles and perspectives in an world that exist inside of me. (Or maybe somewhere else.) My palette is based on bold colors shades, to interpret the world around me.

Early on I was influenced by the great masters. In a trip to Spain showed me great art and culture where my curiosity was spark. All of these events were possible after I won a National Art Contest in my native country. 

My imagination and subject matter ranges from surreal landscapes, animals, and places influenced by endless curiosity.

In my Surreal paintings, I use ancient and modern symbols to give the viewer a sense of scape and freedom, allowing imagination to grow. The outcome is a journey to the subconscious, and a deep understanding of all the things that we encounter in our daily lives.

Also, luck has it I was introduced to Plein-air. This happen 20 years ago by an Ukranian colleague, He told me, come out and you'll see what you are missing. So, this is another way that I express myself in this beautiful world we live in. By Capturing the essence and colors in my artistic journey. Discovering a deep love for nature and its endless hues.

Being an artist is complicated and fun. That is why in addition, I believe that my journey as an artist has just begun, and the road ahead is full of possibilities and opportunities. I believe great art must be made to inspire the world.
