The Art of Paul Bachem. Chasing the Perfect Picture, the painting adventures of an American landscape painter. Monday, August 8, 2011. Trying To Keep Up. I’ve been painting a great deal of the time since I returned from Easton and, in fact, now have a number of new images I’d like to share with you. 8220;Hempstead Harbor” is already sold. Weather permitting I plan to head out tonight for my first nocturne of the year down at the Long Island Rail Road station in Locust Valley and, weather permitting again...

The Art of Paul Bachem. Chasing the Perfect Picture, the painting adventures of an American landscape painter. Wednesday, January 18, 2012. A New Year and a New Approach. I just noticed that it’s been two months since my last blog post! Actually more than two months…the last one is dated November 7. No one can blame me for clogging up their inbox with update after update! First is an image that friends of mine took while traveling recently in Venice. They posted some of the pictures on Facebook when ...

http://chasingtheperfectpicture.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
The Art of Paul Bachem. Chasing the Perfect Picture, the painting adventures of an American landscape painter. Monday, November 7, 2011. However…(and I can hear you thinking “here we go! 8221;) I got stuck with some bad gesso! I can also hear you now saying “Hey Paul, a bad carpenter…” but it is true! I was a hack who could no longer paint! Hope began to swell in my bosom and I excitedly grabbed my gear and a few older panels and went out to paint the two paintings that follow. Note that all of these sma...

I am just back from participating in Cranford New Jersey’s “Paint The Town 2011” Plein Air Event and I won’t drag out the suspense until the end…I was awarded the competition 3. More on that later. Wednesday was the first day of painting and it was a hot one! After finishing up at Asbury Park I headed north a bit to Belford which has a lovely harbor full of working fishing...

The Art of Paul Bachem. Chasing the Perfect Picture, the painting adventures of an American landscape painter. Monday, March 26, 2012. However, at night, it is usually not too bad traffic wise and it gets me home from Dix Hills in about a half hour. For some reason or another I was captivated by the look of it while driving home. The lights are mesmerizing and despite the fact that it was 10PM there did seem to be a lot of notes of color from the brake lights to the exit signs. I am also pleased to annou...

The Art of Paul Bachem: Change and the Stobart Palette
http://chasingtheperfectpicture.blogspot.com/2011/10/change-and-stobart-palette.html
The Art of Paul Bachem. Chasing the Perfect Picture, the painting adventures of an American landscape painter. Monday, October 24, 2011. Change and the Stobart Palette. I believe it is a good idea to shake things up every now and then. Unfortunately what I believe and what I practice are sometimes two different things. What I should say is that I think change is a good idea but I rarely, if ever, practice it! Recently I again watched every episode (as if I had never seen them before! And immediately star...
