October 10, 2024 - The Florida Highwaymen, known for their unique and vibrant depictions of the state's natural beauty, have unveiled a new series of works that capture the unique changes of season in Florida. Their vivid portrayals of tropical sunsets, winding rivers, and towering palm trees have now expanded to highlight the subtle seasonal shifts across Florida's landscape, offering a fresh and intriguing perspective.
While Florida may not experience dramatic seasonal changes like other parts of the country, the Highwaymen's new collection captures the state's natural transitions in color and light, reflecting the often-overlooked nuances of Florida's environment throughout the year. The series celebrates the state's subtropical and tropical regions, inviting the audience to appreciate the unique beauty of Florida's environment and how seasonal patterns influence the flora, fauna, and coastal skies.
The Highwaymen, an African American group of 26 self-taught artists, rose to prominence in the 1950s and 1960s. They created vivid oil paintings of Florida's landscapes sold door-to-door and out of the trunks of cars. Their work, which holds deep cultural and historical significance, has been instrumental in shaping the state's artistic identity, and this new collection continues to honor their legacy while exploring fresh artistic perspectives.
"Florida's seasons are defined by more than just temperature changes," said one of the leading artists of the Highwaymen movement. "We wanted to show how the atmosphere, the light, and the way the land feels changes, even in a state known for its sunshine."
