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.

This fun exhibit is an inexpensive way to sell some small artwork - original framed paintings, limited number of prints and cards, as well as Christmas decorations. It is “cash and carry,” although we will be credit card sales only. Buyers choose their art, pay for it and take it. We are 30 artists, and some of you participating for the first time which is always great. We are very grateful to the Hon Chew Hee Foundation for underwriting some of the cost of the gallery rental, so we can afford to have the show and keep our pricing affordable.
