A 15 minute walk up from the Monteverde Cheese Factory, through a beautiful woodlands, takes you to the gallery of watercolor artist Sarah Dowell. Visiting her unique home, you'll see paintings which often depict local wildlife and jungle scenes. Colorful signs with arrows show the way. It is also possible to drive most of the access road.
My friends and I hiked the path in the back of the monteverde institute about 100 feet from the cheese factory/ice cream store. (Btw, factory no longer does tours). Hike was free. After, we saw sign for “gallery” and came across house in the woods. The owner and artist, Sarah, has been living in Costa Rica since 1978. She welcomed us into her home and gallery. We looked at her collection of shells and her beautiful watercolors that capture the feel of the country. I purchased a pack of ten assorted greeting cards of her paintings. She spoke with us about the Quaker way of life which is a lot more “real” than most others. I’m glad to have happened upon her place.

Artes de Osa has been Puerto Jimenez's best Art Gallery for many years! It is located in the heart of the town across the street from BM Supermercado, the main supermarket. It offers art from over 80 local artists! Your purchases support these artists! The owner Jose Fallas is very nice. He is a community leader who speaks some English and can give tourists good tourist tips.

As a practicing artist, I can personally share the hard work and love that goes into creativity, I can confidently see when someone puts their heart and soul into all that they do. Walking into the gallery, I was immediately stimulated by vibrant colors and great ambiance. Ferlander and Lin have not only created an amazing gallery but also a place of inspiration and creativity. If you are in Monteverde.. don’t miss this gallery. Whether you like art or not, whether the sun is shining or the rain is falling, you will be pleasantly satisfied you stepped into this warm and lovely gallery of some of the best art in Costa Rica!

Local art a beautiful gardens that are really close to town---Arte local y jadines hermosos cerca del pueblo.
Stopped in here on a whim as we were heading out of Santa Elena on our way to La Fortuna. VERY glad we did. The owner had a wide array of pieces from Costa Rican artists in all sorts of media. She was just the sort of shop owner we like ... unobtrusive as we wander around but was there if we had ANY questions and offering alternatives if we wanted "this" but felt what we were looking at was too expensive. BTW - for those who are mono-lingual she speaks very good English and she ships internationally if you need to.

arte jaguar gallery and studio offers the possibility to meet costarican artist Roberto Wesson and his original fine art paintings in the lush cloud forest of monteverde. Wesson is a not only an artist but a naturalist dedicated to a 300 miniature orchid species rescue greenhouse open to visitors. No middle man prices,buy original art directly from the artist.
Come check this artist (and his son) out! Great memories of your trip in Costa Rica. Original canvas paintings or reprints. Very cool stuff!! They can pack in a tube to take on the plane! Bought an original canvas as well as two reprints... best way to support local while bringing home memories of a great Costa Rican adventure vacation!

From fine art canvases, wood carvings and fine silver jewelry to folk art and hand-made soaps; you'll find a great selection of Costa Rican products (as well as few from other Central American artists). Authentic Boruca Indian masks from Costa Rica and Chorotega Indian Pottery. Beautiful leather bags and local jewelry.
