Dave & Martha Lumberjack Duo


To the left we have Pacific Northwest copyright 2010 by Dave Putnam. This painting evokes the raw wilderness of the region spanning Oregon to Vancouver back in the 19th century.
Below we have Oxen copyright 2010 by Martha Putnam. The lumberjacks in the old Pacific Northwest would haul trees to waterways with teams of oxen. Most people viewing these two paintings will experience an uncontrollable urge to put on a flannel shirt, pick up an ax and start chopping down trees. Therefore, only experienced collectors should hang art as powerful and subliminal as this.
