FORT LAUDERDALE – History Fort Lauderdale will present “Florida Everglades: River of Grass Reflections” from July 2 through Sept. 10. The summer exhibit will include Tim Forman’s colorful impressionist fine art works with environmental photographs from the venue’s archived collection. The exhibition can be viewed in the art space on the first level of the New River Inn at 231 SW 2nd Ave. in downtown Fort Lauderdale.

“We invite visitors of all ages to experience the majesty of this unique landscape through the eyes of master oil painting artist Tim Forman and from never-before exhibited photographs,” Patricia Zeiler, executive director of History Fort Lauderdale, said in a statement.

Primarily a self-taught artist, Forman uses field sketches, plein air paintings, and photographs to compose his pieces that are painted in layers with both knife and brush.
