Arman Tateos Manookian (Armenian: Արման Թադէոս Մանուկեան; May 15, 1904 – May 10, 1931) was an Armenian-American painter best known for his works depicting Hawaiian scenes.

While serving in the U. S. Marine Corps he was assigned as a clerk to the author and historian, Major Edwin North McClellan.

His oil paintings are rare and highly valued based on their almost iconic status and scarcity due to his early death, by suicide, in 1931.

Two of the murals, Red Sails and Hawaiian Boy and Girl, are now on long-term loan to the Honolulu Museum of Art.
