"I did almost no shopping in Aruba, it wasn't intentional, I just wasn't interested in dropping a bunch of money on jewelry or Gucci, or disposable fashion like Zara, or gift shop type stuff like a shot glass with three dimensional boobs on it. I like tchotchkes, small art pieces, locally made stuff. This is exactly the sort of thing Purely specializes in. I was especially happy to find a piece depicting the desert landscape, which was my favorite part of the island. Prices are very reasonable and the pieces often come with information about the artists."

"What a great discovery to find this gem of a shop supporting local artists. Really enjoyed browsing to find our annual artwork purchase during our anniversary trip to a beach."

"Though you would never expect a local experience in the middle of a resort, this is the place to go for local Aruban artwork. We originally tried the local market thinking for sure that is where we would find handmade art but aside from a few stands, they are filled with Imported junk made in factories from overseas. Passing through the resort to the beach Purely Aruban Artwork caught our eye. Just a glance and you can tell everything is handmade locally and the items are just gorgeous. Having dealt in paintings before, the prices are very reasonable especially for original artwork. Back in the states, the cost of some of these would be the same just for prints. Definitely stop here where you can buy with the confidence of supporting a local artist."
The Artists
I'm Sylvia Croes, the founder of
Purely Aruban Artwork
Years ago it was my dream to connect to people who were searching for authentic handmade art in Aruba.
It wasn’t the easiest of journeys but I got together with my friends and family and together we made it a reality.
Little did I know that there would be so many artists in Aruba excited to join our shop!
