Pat Tolar Circus Tent Clown Trio Southern Folk Art Painting 2005 Puffy Clouds
A happy and FUN original southern folk art painting of a trio of clowns – colorfully depicted – running towards the circus tent under a perfect ethereal blue sky with with puffy (literally, impasto) clouds descending in perspective as are the puffy green lollipop styled trees under them. Bought this in downtown Vicksburg, Mississippi’s “The Attic Gallery”- a reputable art gallery since 1971. It was hung in my son’s bright modern nursery and toddler bedroom but as he grown into a tween – his style has changed and we don’t have a place for it. Note : A small nick on the canvas on largest tree and some minor rubs near signature in dark green grass area thanks movers!!!! But well taken care of in a smoke-free home. I hung it with a colorful stripe grosgrain ribbon for added appeal but it doesn’t have to be used as the canvas already has a wire hanger in place – see photos for both ways of display. It is a one-of-a-kind art piece!!
