Artist's Description
This is a painting of Mr. Billy beck as Senor Billy the Hobo Clown. The original photo was taken by P.S. Zollo. This is the second painting in my "The human side of a clown" series. Mr. Zollo had the honor of meeting Billy the clown in person. His real name is Billy Beck. This is what Billy told Mr. Zollo during their photo shoot "In the Forties he was a clown at the celebrated Cirque Medrano in Paris and shared the stage with Buster Keaton, among others.

About Patty Vicknair
As an artist I have to be true to myself and admit that I paint what makes me happy. I like color, I like fun colorful happy images. So you will find paintings of actual living clowns, many of which are my friends on Facebook, you will also find tribute paintings to clowns who are no longer with us, but the laughter lives on. You will find Carnival masque paintings, because I love the glitter and the excitement and the mystery caught in the eye. You will find beautiful flowers, tranquil boats, and lions, and tigers, and bears...oh my... well I haven't painted a bear yet but, it could happen. The point is I paint happy images that I hope you will enjoy looking at as much as I enjoyed painting them. I am also an a amateur photographer...
