The main trait of his work is a lyrical melancholy and linkage to his literary works. His production did not reach appreciation but in the 80´s. In the 20´s Bartuška already won recognition as a poet and painter in many reviews, he wrote several poetry collections influenced by social work and Poetism of which he illustrated some and prepared graphic layout for. At the same time he concentrated himself on music and theatre.
