Fall 2023 DATES
ART SHOW AT THE WELZIE ART GALLERY
TBD November 2023
Art and wine is a favorite combination of ours, they belong together the same way beach sunsets, rainbows and aloha are just part of Hawaii. This type of experience blends a feeling of whimsical with culture, it is no wonder Wine + Welzie has become an exceedingly popular monthly event at The Welzie Art Gallery.
As you walk through the Andaz Resort at Wailea, you are greeted by a mesmerizing ocean view, chill music blended with an upscale aloha vibe. You turn down the hallway and begin to hear people chatting and laughing as you enter the Welzie Art Gallery. This time your eyes see bright, fun and colorful artwork, pictures of Maui, turtles, sharks and goats snorkeling. The view of the ocean and sunset encompass a table filled with wine glasses and beverages. You are greeted by a Gallery host with a big smile and she hands you a fresh glass of white wine as you begin to make your tour through the Welzie Art Gallery. Everytime you look at an art piece you can’t help but smile at the light hearted and whimsical nature of Welzie Art.
Welzie Art is such a unique medium created from surfboard foam, fiberglass and resin. Each piece is hand sculpted just like a surfboard. The artwork has a cool and trendy vibe to it and the gloss on each piece makes you want to run your hand across it like a surfer grabbing their favorite surfboard. The designs and imagery are playful and feel fresh, even the sculptures make you want to touch them.
Welzie hosts a monthly Art + Wine event in his Gallery to showcase new art, sculptures and to socialize with other friends who appreciate the nature of creativity and fine art. The Gallery is pulsing with happy energy as people gather around Welzie’s table watching him paint, dedicate and artist proof art piece for the new and seasoned collectors. You can feel the excitement as one of the guests walks up with a huge smile and shakes Welzie’s hand. He has just purchased a Silk Screen print and Welzie begins to hand paint this piece in front of the audience, we find out later this is called artist proofing and is one of the highlights that a live art night can offer. The line of collectors is growing as each waits patiently for Welzie to sign their artwork and document their purchase and meeting the artist.
A couple walks up and meets Welzie, they share that they are on their honeymoon and have bought their first piece of art as a married couple. Welzie’s Team lays out the large Aluminum Reproduction and Welzie turns it over and begins to sign the back. As the couple is talking about their honeymoon adventure we begin to see Welzie drawing what they are telling him they did on their trip. There are turtles, sharks and shave ice on the back of their art piece. The couple thanks Wellzie and says “We don’t know which side should face the front now!”
Wine + Welzie is such a unique and fun evening that encourages socializing with the artist and other collectors while appreciating delicious wine and beautiful views in Maui. This event is a complimentary offering to the resort guests in Wailea and the community of Maui. Through the love of art we can all find connection and appreciation for vibrant color, creativity and socializing. You are invited to join us for an evening of art and wine appreciation each month at the Welzie Art Gallery located at The Andaz Resort, Wailea.
