	Hounslow Heath - Highwaymen and Highway Robbery
		The first of the legendary highwaymen were Royalist officers who "took to the road" when they were outlawed under the Commonwealth.
		While many of the highwaymen were thugs pure and simple, it cannot be denied that some of them had a certain flair.
		The most gallant of the Heath's highwaymen was probably the French-born Claude Duval, who danced with a beautiful victim on the Heath and let her wealthy husband go for £100.

	University Press of Florida: The Highwaymen
		The Highwaymen introduces a group of young fl artists who painted their way out of the despair awaiting them in citrus groves and packing houses of 1950s Florida.
		Emerging in the late 1950s, the Highwaymen created idyllic, quickly realized images of the Florida dream and peddled some 100,000 of them from the trunks of their cars.
		Working with inexpensive materials, the Highwaymen produced an astonishing number of landscapes that depict a romanticized Florida--a faraway place of wind-swept palm trees, billowing cumulus clouds, wetlands, lakes, rivers, ocean, and setting sun.

	Floridian: The Highwaymen
		For more than four decades, the Highwaymen -- African-American landscape artists -- have painted Florida nature scenes, loaded their work into their cars and taken it on the road, stopping in small towns and big cities to sell door-to-door at businesses and sometimes busy corners.
		The handful of Highwaymen still painting for the most part avoid the public eye and do nothing that might draw the attention of tax collectors, bureaucrats who might ask to see occupational licenses, or policemen looking to enforce "no soliciting" ordinances.
		Most of the working Highwaymen have eluded him, a white man who looks something like a bespectacled Andy Griffith, carries a legal pad and asks blunt questions that may scare shy folks into thinking he has come to make their hard lives even harder.

	The Highwaymen
		Although there were well-born and well-mannered highwaymen, they were far outnumbered by those who practiced their trade with brutality.
		The demise of the highwayman began with the establishment of the Horse Patrol around London in 1805, and was furthered by the founding of the Metropolitan Police in 1829.
		Although highwaymen persisted in isolated areas, the growth of a paid police force meant their heyday was over.

	Artist: The Highwaymen
		He chose the name "The Highwaymen" for the artists, because their marketing and sales strategy consisted of traveling the highways and byways of central Florida peddling their paintings out of the back of their cars.
		While some of the original artists are still living, in other parts of the country they are still relatively unknown and have not yet received proper credit for their contribution to Florida's art tradition.
		Further, their paintings met a growing demand for regional Florida art and served to encourage what has become the Indian River school of painting, perhaps the only school or movement within the state that is recognizable as such.

	Featured Artists: The Highwaymen
		The "Highwaymen" is the name given to a loosely associated group of young African-American artists living in the Fort Pierce area of Florida in the 1950's through the 1970's.
		The Highwaymen may not have realized it at the time, but by creating such evocative themes in their work, they were satisfying buyers' needs and laying the base for a huge demand in the future.
		The Highwaymen -- who worked so hard to ply their trade with their makeshift roadside art galleries -- can now sit back while a whole new generation of "highwaymen" (the people who are scouring the shows, sales and flea markets) pursue their hobby and enhance their collections.

	The Highwaymen: Artist: Willie C. Reagan

		He and the others of the group that ended up with the Highwaymen name found an enterprising way to earn money so that they wouldn't have to work in agriculture, one hot and laborious type of work.
		Some of the Highwaymen participated but, outside recognition gave them the self-confidence to exhibit more extensively and, the develop their artistic skills.
		The story of the Highwaymen begins with one man, now deceased, who has come to be known as the dean of Florida landscape painters, A. "Bean" Backus of Fort Pierce.

		Dick Turpin is one of the best remembered highwaymen who operated in this area, although he was often to be found in North London, Essex and Yorkshire.
		Most of the highwaymen were not like Duval, they were really no more than 'thugs', but one exception was Twysden, Bishop of Raphoe who was killed carrying out a robbery on the Heath.
		Few highwaymen survived beyond their early twenties - they were usually betrayed for 'blood money' or were captured through their own stupidity.

		In fact, what makes this work vernacular is not just the artists' style, technique or imagery, but the market for which they created: not connoisseurs but ordinary people seeking a little original beauty to decorate their living rooms.
		Because it so happens that the common language with which the Highwaymen worked was, to a great extent, the vernacular of kitsch, these paintings can challenge easy notions of artistic quality.
		The Highwaymen as a group represented a more or less loose association of 26 men and one woman, mostly from the Ft. Pierce, Florida, area.

		The album also proved mightily popular, hitting number one on the country listings and producing a Top 20 follow-up single in a cover of Guy Clark's "Desperadoes Waiting for a Train." Afterwards, the Highwaymen returned to their individual careers for a few years, but reconvened in 1990 to record a sequel, Highwayman 2.
		Another layoff followed, and when the Highwaymen returned for a third outing in 1995, they inked a new deal with Liberty/Capitol.
		The Road Goes on Forever was produced by Don Was, but proved a distinct commercial disappointment, and the group did not record again prior to Jennings' death in 2002.

		The Highwaymen is a documentary about a group of self-taught, African-American landscape painters from southern Florida who began their careers in the 1960s by driving up and down the highways selling their paintings out of their cars.
		It is no longer necessary for the artists to travel the highways, but instead their work is sold in galleries.

		The Highwaymen were (and are) keen observers and when opportunity and circumstance allowed, ventured well beyond landscape painting.
		Perhaps the single, most important one, at least to date, is the involvement of dealers who recognized a ground floor opportunity and added their resources to getting the story out.
		I hope the Highwaymen will take a closer look at their urban environment, realize its uniqueness, and record it as they have the natural environment.

		Their origins go back to the late 1950s, when, for a time, it seemed as though every college was spawning a folk group or two or three.
		In January of the following year, the original Highwaymen were playing together again, at the annual World Folk Music Association concert in Washington, D.C., and after that resumed concertizing on a semi-regular basis.
