So amazing! He's art is being exhibited in Los Angeles at the Vincent Price Museum from Jan 21 - May 25. 'Round the Clock' is part of the Pacific Standard Time Exhibit with the Getty. He's now 101 years young and still amazing. He was at the museum today.

Wonderful film capturing the forever -young Tyrus. At ninety-eight years of age, he was just awarded Los Angeles' "Hope of L.A." award last Friday. If you get a chance, go out and see Tyrus fly his kites near the pier at Santa Monica on the third Saturday of each month!
