Linda Erfle produces works of representational art through
the mediums of transparent watercolor and/or gouache. She finds inspiration
for her paintings everywhere, from botanical subjects, to deteriorating
objects, people and her favorite, the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Since completing numerous college Art classes at San Jose
State University and Cosumnes River College, Linda has gone on to study
with Anita Wolff, Jill Figler, Ken Potter, Dale Laitinen, Jan Kunz, Judi Betts, Cheng-Khee Chee and Jane Hofstetter.
The Highlight Gallery in Mendocino, the
Davis Artery, Flowers of Main in Placerville and seasonally, the Kit Carson Gallery
at Silver Lake display Linda’s paintings.
Linda’s watercolor work has been published in; The
Best of Flower Painting, by Northlight Publications, Copyright
1997, International Artists Magazine,
issue #24-April/May 2002, 100 Ways to Paint Still
Life & Florals, 2005, By International Artists . A number of
her paintings are included in A Painters Guide to Design and
Composition by Margot Schulzke, published by Northlight in 2006 and
the magazine Watercolor (an American Artist publication),

Now a signature member of the National Watercolor
Society, Linda has been honored with an award for the 86th
annual, 2006 exhibition. Her painting, “Fresnos” will be
included in the 2008 American Watercolor Society’s 141st
