THE MIND OF ARTIST RANDY TAT
\"I created \"Timey the Clown\", the son of a watchmaker, who toured as a performer in
the '40s and '50s, juggling clocks," says Tat, who proceeded to use some of the
vintage circus posters in his collection to formulate a history,
mythology and retro design for the character, even going so far as to portray him in
photographs which can be seen on his website http://www.tatonthewall.com. The photos
depict Timey's clown wardrobe,
antique trunks covered with travel stickers containing his make-up kit and
paraphernalia. I have a fascination with the circus and performers,\" explains Tat
about the theatrical element in his work. Timey serves as my alter ego, a
representation of the artist's long journey for his art.\" \"I am honored to be chosen
to participate in this very prestigious show, which also benefits a very important
cause," says Tat. "I took the metaphor
of time and added my own interest in the circus and clowns to come up with a
full-fledged character that adds a back story to the art, giving it depth and
an unexpected humanity.\"

TAT HAS CREATED A MINI WONDROUS
WONDERLAND OF IMAGINARY
STORYLINES, WARM POIGNANT
CHARACTERS AND A HEART THROBBING
PLOT SET IN A VAUDEVILLE - LIKE THEATRICAL
FANTASY PLAYWORLD, WHERE MANY CHILDREN\'S
MINDS LIVE (AND SOME LUCKY ADULTS) ....IN THE RICHNESS OF VIVID FANTASY, CUSHIONED
BY GRANDMOTHERLY SENSE OF COMFORT.
OH WHAT A BETTER PLACE TO BE, THEN TO DISCOVER THE UNEXPECTED, AS YOU LOOK AND PEEK
AND EXPLORE INTO THE TIMELESS WORLD OF \"TIMEY THE CLOWN.\" AS BITS AND PIECES OF HIS
WORLD ARE REVEALED. SSSHHH, YOU MAY JUST FIND SOME REALLY AWESOME SECRETS. TIME WILL
TELL !!!
