Of the Tz'utuhil Maya artists Mario Gonzalez Chavajay's work has improved the most in recent years. He is the emerging Tz'utuhil Maya artist.  His grandfather is the first Tz'utuhil artist, Rafael Gonzalez y Gonzalez, and he is  younger brother of Pedro Rafael Gonzalez Chavajay. Mario has been painting for twenty years. He is among the hardest working of the Maya artists painting at least eight hours every day of the week. Two of his paintings were exhibited with the exhibition, The Courtly Art of the Ancient Maya, at the Fine arts museum of San Francisco. His paintings and those of his brother were the only modern works shown with the ancient Maya artifacts. He was among the Guatemalan artists invited to the United States for the opening of the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, and one of his paintings is in their permanent collection.
