Wire Horse I and Cave Horse I copyright 2010 by Dave Putnam



I am entering a competition for horse paintings. Here are two rough drafts that go in different directions. The bottom one is based on cave art. I ate raw meat for two days before starting this painting. The top one is based on my wire sculptures, so I had to channel an earlier version of myself to make this painting. This was harder to do than it sounds. Anyway, which of of these two do you like better?

  1. I prefer the top one.

  2. I need more details regarding the competition. My gut reaction, I like the bottom one, but I haven't eaten any meat for several days so it might just mean I'm hungry.
