Borbay in Ko Samui, Koh Phangan and Shanghai, A Honeymoon Tale, Part Two
Borbay in Bangkok, A Honeymoon Tale, Part One
The day after Christmas, we packed our bags and flew to Bangkok for our belated honeymoon. It was a luscious four week excursion. I did things unprecedented in my adult life… I read seven books without interruption. Sat on the beach. Worked very little.

While Joe Flacco and Tom Brady were busy exchanging sacked lunches, Ryan Seslow and yours truly were hosting the opening reception for “Street Legal – Gratiffyti: Seslow & Borbay on Canvas” at Iona College.

2011 Borbay’s Year In Review on Canvas and Beyond
2011 began true and proper with HOV… a work of art, a Warhol (already). He was both the first of my #KingsOfHipHop, and the first painting of the year.

Painting Process A Portrait of My Minnesota Bride
Getting married was the finest experience of my life… and it has everything to do with my bride — Erin. Her folks, Jeanne and Tom, hosted our dream wedding in their Minnetonka, Minnesota backyard this past July.
