About Us

Our gallery showcases the private art collection of Watters Martin, a lifelong collector with a deep reverence for Hawai‘i’s culture, beauty, and creative legacy. Spanning decades, this curated assemblage reflects not only an artist’s eye but a historian’s heart — honoring the stories, landscapes, and makers that have shaped island life through the years.

From vintage Hawaiiana to original works by beloved local artists, each piece has been lovingly preserved and now finds new life as part of an intimate viewing experience. Rooted in aloha and family stewardship, the gallery offers a glimpse into one man’s devotion to the islands and the art that captures their soul.
