About The Artwork

"On the left is clown Frank Billerbeck, who has worked all over the world. He's worked in the center of Paris, France for six years. The two center characters are no-name ring stock. The trumpet player sounds first trumpet and second trmpet leading up to showtime." The above was written on an index card attached to the back of the stretcher bar, presumably by Donald Putman.

About The Artist

A traditional painter of the both the old and the modern West, Putman ("Putt")chose to paint the west "Because it includes the whole scope - beautiful women, rugged men, landscapes, interiors, exteriors and I have the freedom to relate an exciting idea in a way which I believe shows through to those viewing my works." His first employment in the field of art began in 1961 working as a scenic artist for MGM Studios. He then served an an instructor at Art Center College for roughly ten years before devoting himself full time to producing paintings for art galleries. He was one of the featured artists in Contemporary Western Artists by Peggy and Harold Samuels.
