You don't catch him; he gets away. Pick up the keycard he dropped and go back to the museum.
After you use the timecard (from the Clown Store) and get a photo of the thief, you will chase him on the scooters from the Jazz Club. But you will lose him and go to Early Poptropica Island to see the curator there, and then recover the painting with the key to the Inspector's house.
The art thief is back on Counterfeit Island. As part of Counterfeit island, you don't need to do anything in Early Poptropica except get the key from the curator at the Pop Art Museum, then return to Counterfeit Island to open the Inspector's house.
The only thing you can do is climb on the light on top of The Scream. This doesn't work very well but it is unavoidable, and the way the island is supposed to work.
