As a highly respected Impressionistic painter of the Pacific Northwest, Wachtler’s detailed and delicate oil paintings reflect the tradition of the “Philadelphia Ten”;  a group of painters educated in the early 1900’s at Moore College of art, PA.  With great respect for the American Impressionism, Wachtler carries on this painting tradition.

“Early on, I made a conscious choice to portray through my art the beauty and hope that I find in nature.  My goal is to provide a moment of respite from the chaos of our complex world.  The earth’s landscape is full of beauty, I want to share that vision.”
