At the Beach
A peaceful afternoon at low tide.
Desert Rose
This beauty that thrives in the desert grows where we stay in Ixtapa
Restless Ocean
I was very happy how this watercolour turned out.
Beach Palms
I have painted this scene many times. This version is one of my favourites
Historic Fence Collection
This is a Collection of Historic Fences in the Chilcotin area in central British Columbia. This collection is from my memories of living in the Chilcotin in the 1950's. These fences are mostly replaced by treated posts and barbed wire now. A few still exist, you can find them if you explore the Chilcotin.




This rail fence inspired the entire collection. It is a work of art in itself. I came across it at a ranch in Nazko.
Russell Fence
This fence is in the south Chilcotin. You can see Mount Waddington in the background.
Snake Rail Fence
This fence is at Riske Creek. You can see the "Dome" in the background
Sheep Creek Bridge
This is the bridge in the 1960's before it was replaced with the current concrete and steel structure. It crosses the Fraser River just west of Williams Lake.
The Golf Collection
This is a collection about golfing at Palma Real in Ixtapa, Mexico




The signature hole # 15. You tee off on top, cross the river and land the fairway on this par 4.
This is a pretty and challenging par 3 where you have an elevated tee box and small green to land.
The ultimate sand trap! The tree gobbled your ball right up. It has been taken out now. I used to hate this sand trap but now I kind of miss it.
This is Bob putting. It was a sketch from years ago but I always liked it.

About the Artist
This website is a collection of original art by Linda Bartsch. The work is mostly watercolour, acrylic and pencil drawings. Inspiration is drawn from Linda's surroundings and slightly over-active imagination. Linda's studio is located in Horsefly, BC. The whole thing
started at a ladies painting night at the Anvil Pub where Linda discovered that having a paint brush in her hand felt just right.
