Some say Florida's affinity for bright colors started with the Florida Highwaymen and
their vernacular, supersaturated Florida landscapes. Another famous self-taught folk artist
was Earl Cunningham, sometimes nicknamed 'Grandpa Moses' for his naive portraits of a
bygone Florida world.
And Florida does not lack for high-quality art museums. In addition to Miami, other
notable cities are Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, St Petersburg, Tampa, Sarasota,
Naples and even Orlando.
