-What folks
are saying about the presentation -
"We had
standing-room only for Bob Beatty presentation at The
Casements. His talk was engaging, informative and enjoyed by
both novice and veteran aficionados of Highwayman art.
Highly recommended."
Greg Milliken, Neighbor to Family,
Ormond Beach , FL
Comments from attendees of a presentation at the North
Indian River County Library, Sebastian, FL
“I now have a better understanding of who the Highwaymen are
and their history. I now appreciate the beauty of
their painting - especially after speaking to the
artists themselves.”
“I appreciate the “hard times” these artists had to go thru
and the true Florida beauty depicted in their work.”
“I felt very honored to be here to listen to a story of
history by my people and to lean how they persevered in
times of struggle.”
“I knew the Highwaymen’s pictures were collectors’ dreams
but didn’t know personal and human stories about their
lives. Well done.”
"I was very impressed
with the book both the narrative and illustrations. Bob
tells a compelling story about these extraordinary ordinary
men and women" Brandon Munson, Glastonbury, CT
