Title Guarantee Building Painting by Borbay

Fall is around the corner, and there is much to report! So, relax, grab a coffee, splash in some Buca’ and enjoy.

1. LA Mag Prints Perch Painting

My Hollywood hightail has been inked… by Los Angeles Magazine. This Perch Painting placement was the icing on an already delicious cake.

3. Brad and Angelina, Married Canvases

After nine years, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have tied the knot. Topical, as I recently completed a commission of Jolie to join Brad in the same collection — together in life… together in art. Oh, and the Jolie process video featuring MH the Verb’s song “Coraline” has nearly 4,000 views (just a few billion shy of the World Record).

Mads Mikkelsen Painting as Hannibal by Borbay
4. Eat The Rude

A TV show about Hannibal? Sounded preposterous to me… until I tuned-in. I was commissioned to paint Mads Mikkelsen as the erudite cannibal — a bonus? New collector, Michelle Kenneth, penned a beautiful piece about the process.

Thanks to Zack O’Malley Greenburg, I was invited to play in the famed Artists Writers Celebrity Softball game in the Hamptons. Despite primarily riding the pine, I was featured taking cuts on this Newsday video (:45 in). Also…

Finally: Nucky Thompson and a painting of the Long Island City Pepsi Sign are up next. Thank you for being here.
