Maya Artists from the highlands of Guatemala
In three of the hundreds of communities that make up the vast Maya population of present day Guatemala Indian artists produce oil paintings about Mayan life. Those communities are Cakchiquel speaking San Juan Comalapa, and the Tz'utuhil speaking towns of Santiago Atitlan and San Pedro la Laguna. At present this website deals only with the Tz'utuhil-speaking artists, and mainly with the artists from San Pedro la Laguna and its close neighbor San Juan la Laguna.
