Tenerife attractions' art shopping is even found by Tenerife beaches.
Tenerife attractions for art shopping (Tenerife attracciones por compra de arte) are indeed countless. Art browsing and art investment are part of them. So is art production on the whole island. The places where people paint and produce are often amazing. Tenerife attractions for art shopping don't just come by means of galleries or, by a 'vernissage'(exhibition). Art can often be purchased from private people like Anand Rubai who simply work from home and produce Tenerife art such as this collage aquarel Tenerife whose beauty of collage layers with Tenerife bark and all kinds of other natural materials found on the island couldn't be reproduced in the graphic shown. The volcanic and warm Island Tenerife is ideal to get energy and inspiration. I know of 6 foreign painters in Tenerife who all swear that the island gives them not only more ideas but, also more stamina and health to go on with creating art as Tenerife attractions. They also believe that living is cheaper for them on the biggest of all Canary Islands.
Artists being Tenerife attractions whose addresses I know are:
Click for translation into English of Site Julio Puentes with video to see how people live portrait is done.
Life is truly amazing:I only just discovered after 8 years in Tenerife that Julio Puente is the husband of a Spanish lady neighbor of mine I have been talking to whenever I meet her in my street. Reason being that I never knew that her husband Julio Puentes is one of famous Tenerife attractions for art shopping is because, I normally don't poke my nose into people's private and in this case business affairs. I like my friends for what they are and not for the business they are involved in.
Don't be shy and contact me for anything related to art shopping Tenerife attractions! Perhaps, we can help.

Some time ago, I saw a young German guy at Playa Jardin on the beach park promenade next to the bistro for hungry beach combers. He was sitting on a bench drawing and painting water color landscapes of his surroundings. He looked so happy. 2o works by him were lined They were only DINA4 which He sold each aquarel for EU 10 which is a give away. They were not prints, by the way. Please, mind, that he might only be one of Tenerife attractions for art shopping in winter. Summers in his native northern Europe serve him for selling his art work just as well.
Then there's this other German Tenerife beach lover who makes astounding sculptures of black beach sand. His hat on the floor begs for a donation. Perhaps he'd come to your holiday home. He might do a sculpture for you out of other material. Just ask...
License needed for Tenerife attractions art:In April 2008 a beach artist was confronted by a Guardia Civil (patroling police man) on Playa Jardin.
He said a license was needed to sell there. He told the lady artist if he would find her again on this spot offering her works she would be fined EU 90. She pointed out to him how happy passing tourists were seeing her displays. He said that he enjoyed them as well as attractions for the beach but, that the law was the law.
She is expected to be back on Playa Jardin anyway disregarding the license threat because, she is seeing herself as one of Tenerife attractions for art shopping.

When you stroll through the oldest resort Puerto de la Cruz you will find a few galleries a few steps from the main hub Plaza de Charco. One is in Calle Quintana (sorry, it's been closed) by the old Hotel La Marqueza. Try negotiate a price. I have seen other tiny shops selling paintings and drawings. They are hidden all over the town.
Art on Tenerife flea markets:Although flea Market de Nuestra Señora de África in Santa Cruz Tenerife is definitely one of Tenerife attractions for its sheer size alone flea markets are not the best source for art shopping. You might be lucky with a framed old painting, though. You never know what you may find. But, you must be real early for that. Best before 9 am in Santa Cruz, Avda.José Manuel Guimera. Sundays only. It closes by 2p.m. A reasonably good piece of art would disappear on the double. No contemporary good art producer will sell on flee markets. Shoppers there normally negotiate prices too much. As a last note it remains to say that paintings and drawings are mostly offered in Tenerife. Other artwork is rare. Handy crafts are a different field, although, I saw exceptional works at the shop El Limonero bordering on art. More attractive art galleries and art studios may be found by going from Tenerife attractions to Puerto de la Cruz where art can be bought.
