Brian Roughton, founder and president of the gallery, spoke of his love for Putnam’s work — the artist persevered through ALS to continue her painting career. The late artist’s daughters, Karen Putnam Kinnison and Dorothy Putnam Darrah, attended the party to give a speech on their mother’s life as an artist and her inspiration.
