Create your own art piece
Art Class Daily for Adults and Kids
Create your own Welzie inspired Art piece using a handmade fiberglass and resin background created by Welzie himself. Use graphite transfer and draw with the same Posca paint pens he uses to make his own artwork. In the 75 minute art class, you create and leave with an original piece of art — and your favorite maui experience.
Art Experience
Scavenger Hunt
Grab a Scavenger Hunt from the Gallery and join the adventure of hunting for Welzie's hand carved clues all over the resort.
Handmade Original Artwork from Start to Finish on Maui, Hawaii
Art that makes you smile
Welzie hand crafts each piece of original artwork using the same process as building a surfboard — foam, fiberglass, resin, and Posca paint pens. His proprietary process creates unique artwork with a distinct look and feel. No two pieces are alike. Once the original artwork sells it is gone forever.

Custom Commissioned Art
Create your own story through art
A commission begins with a conversation with Welzie. Share what you love about Maui and the artwork. Welzie listens, then creates a completely custom art piece made uniquely for you based on your story. A one-of-a-kind original that belongs to no one else in the world.
This is how a family heirloom is made.
Meet Welzie and his Art
Hawaii Captured His Heart
At 14, Welzie got his first job at a Santa Cruz surf shop learning to build surfboards. He went on to study fine art at the University of Hawaii — then spent twenty years on Oahu blending the two crafts into Welzie Art, something entirely his own.
In 2019 he opened the Welzie Art Gallery as the Artist in Residence at the Andaz Maui, Wailea and creates daily in his Art Studio in South Maui.
Corporate Gifting
Big Smiles for Big Groups
Welzie Art makes gifting easy for groups of 25 or more — quick-dry towels, beach blankets, turtle stuffies and matted fine art prints, all in the bright, happy style people love and remember. Volume pricing, one point of contact, and gifts that actually get used.
