What To Expect

Painted woodcarving is a major art from in some towns near Oaxaca city. Unlike weaving and many types of ceramics or embroidery woodcarving is a relatively new art; the creation of painted animal, human and fantasy figures for purely decorative purposes is coming up very strongly lately, becoming very sought after world wide.
In this tour/experience you can feel the sensation of creating your own.
Alebrije: a word improperly used to refer to call painted woodcarved pieces; it is more accurately applied to pieces that are fantasy figures, such as horned serpents, winged cats, horned lizards etc.
