E. Putnam Studio

E. Putnam Studio primarily works with birds, mammals, and insects, including both traditional game and more unusual or exotic species, as well as restoration of existing mounts.

Mount styles center on detailed bird mounts and careful repairs or refreshes of existing bird and mammal taxidermy rather than high-volume production work.

Elizabeth’s lifelong fascination with the natural world, experience in wildlife rehabilitation, and scientific background inform a detailed, reverent approach to every piece.

Reviews highlight extremely lifelike, artistic, and uniquely creative work that often reads as fine art as much as taxidermy.

The studio publishes clear pricing for classes, workshops, and finished insect art, with bird taxidermy workshops typically running about $775–$975, shorter sessions around $95, and fine insect art pieces ranging from the mid-$500s to over $3,000.

Class and event times are scheduled with set daily hours, but no specific turnaround timelines are published for custom taxidermy or restoration, so you should contact the studio to discuss project timing.

In addition to taxidermy, the studio offers taxidermy repair and cleaning, fine insect art, hand-sculpted porcelain flowers, classes and workshops, and short-term rentals of taxidermy and entomology art for events or photo shoots.
