The 2026 Hawaii Watercolor Society Members’ Show, entitled “99% Transparent” refers to the requirement that the paintings be executed with 99% transparent watercolor paints. The show features 77 works by 43 member artists. The juror for the show is Sterling Edwards, an internationally renowned watermedia master artist, instructor, mentor, and author. Sterling began a second career in 1993 to pursue his passion for painting as a visual and interpretive artist. Having studied art since the age of twelve, he developed a unique and expressive style of painting that has since gained international acclaim and the respect of his peers, students, art collectors, and designers.
The exhibition also features artwork from 11 notable Hawai'i glass artists from Glass Fusion Hawaiʻi exhibiting approximately 35 pieces of glass art. The inclusion of glass artwork complements the luminosity of transparent watercolor paintings.

Opening Reception for the exhibition is Friday, March 6, 5-8 PM with an Awards Presentation. Closing Reception will occur on Saturday, March 28, 4-6 PM with Artist talks and presentation of the People's Choice Award.
The aim of the Hawai'i Watercolor Society is to nurture and stimulate interest in watermedia through education, exhibits, and collaboration with other organizations, associations and individuals.

Do you love glass? Have you always wanted to try making your own fused glass work but didn't know where to start? Or are you experienced, but not ready to jump into independent studio?

Join Master Artist Bud Spindt for the Thursday Evening All Levels Class! Bud instructs beginner and intermediate students on glass fusing techniques while introducing tools used to accomplish your work. Bud structures his class where you bring a project idea, or have something in mind, and he helps you learn from start to finish how to fuse glass. Advanced students benefit from Bud's knowledge and experience, and it's just plain fun to be with other artists!
