The light in Alamos, Mexico is ideal for painting, especially in the winter because of the consistent light. You can put down your brush and return the next day to the same natural tones.

Artists make Alamos their home. Painters, sculptors, photographers and crafts people find inspiration in the architecture, the colorful vines and the greens of the surrounding hills. Groups join to share techniques, paint and sketch.

In June 2007, La Casa de la Cultura, in conjunction with Alamos Muralist Daan Hoekstra, initiated an exciting three year project through which fresco murals will be painted in public buildings in Alamos. In 2009, Daan and a team of local artists completed a mural in Galleria La Quintera on Calle Obregon.
Daan's world-class work includes murals, paintings, drawing, decorative painting and restoration. His work graces the walls of several of the homes in Alamos.
