Hawai`i Watercolor Society

 

The Hawai`i Watercolor Society was founded in 1962 by Hawai`i Artist Hon Chew Hee. Our aim as an organization is to nurture and stimulate interest in water media through education, exhibits, and collaboration with other organizations, associations and individuals.

The Hawai`i Watercolor Society sponsors two juried exhibits every year as well as a biennial curated show highlighting the work of our signature members. In addition, we host periodic sales, themed shows and community events.

In conjunction with our exhibits we offer two week long workshops each year featuring nationally recognized teaching artists. On an intermittent basis we sponsor shorter duration workshops on a variety of art-related topics.

Susanne Haase is a German watercolor artist who currently lives in southern Germany but paints worldwide. She is drawn to Hawaii because of its beauty, life style and uniqueness. Susanne studied art at the University of Alabama and was trained in watercolor and oil painting in many master classes around the world.

As a nature and animal lover, Susanne is fascinated by the variety of nature, flowers and wildlife. Therefore, these are the main motifs she focuses on. Her paintings are supposed to take the viewer for a brief moment away from reality and make him see and feel the beauty of a special location, plant or ceature. Also, with her paintings, she wants to draw attention to the endangerment of animals and nature by depicting their uniqueness and beauty.

Susanne is a member of the Hawaiian Watercolor Society, the German Watercolor Society and she joins the Artists for Conservation Group. She presently is teaching art to children and adults in Germany and she's presenting her work at www.watercolorinmind.de and www.instagram.com/watercolorinmind.
