Citgo Sign Painting En Plein Air by Borbay
I first set foot on Boston University’s campus as a 17-year-old, 123-pound runner, looking to channel the Terrier. Despite graduating from the College of Fine Arts, I never painted live on the streets of Boston.
So, when I found myself in town for the first time in ten years… I decided to rectify this egregious error. With my penchant for neon, and the recent drama surrounding Citgo… the subject chose me.
Afronaut — An Album Cover For MH the Verb’s Revolution
MH the Verb created the magic… I painted a picture to represent his creation. Introducing the cover of AFRONAUT — MH’s latest album… which, friends, is a banger.
As a nuanced creative collaboration of the most exciting variety, I’ve weaved a Q&A with MH throughout the process photos below.
And feel the POWER… in the exclusive time lapse and video release for MH’s 1st single.
Eclipse Jackson Hole Guggenheim Painting by Borbay
“I’m gonna drop the Gugg in front of the Tetons, and live paint the eclipse at 9,095′ in Jackson Hole.” Wait, what?
Yes, the 9th painting in my 20-year-series traded in 5th avenue for a ski resort… and friend, it was glorious!

Gai Mode Beauty Salon Neon Sign — Painted Live at Four Seasons Jackson Hole
It’s been thirty or so years since the Gai Mode Beauty Salon neon sign has been active in Jackson Hole… so, when I decided to paint it… invention was the name of the game.

Gai is the latest piece I’ve created as Artist-In-Residence at Four Seasons Jackson Hole. Big ups to Nicholas Howard for the soundtrack.
Snake and Jake’s and Cutty’s in Grand Teton National Park
I had the distinct pleasure of creating this painting for the Jackson Hole Food & Wine Dinner Series. Our event, hosted by Katrina and Brandon Ryan, featured the culinary expertise of James Beard Award winning Chef, Ryan Prewitt. Together with Megan Gallagher, Haynes Poe and Chef Prewitt, we put our minds together to create an image celebrating both New Orleans and Jackson Hole.
Our love for dive bars prevailed, resulting in this hybrid painting, featuring NOLA’s Snake and Jake’s Christmas Club Lounge and the Teton Gables sign, which resides in front of Jackson Hole’s own Cutty’s Bar & Grill… and, of course, we added Grand Teton National Park for good measure.

Thank you for the soundtrack help, my darling Vega. Oh, and you can take home this painting, if your wall is feeling bare and needs to be rawhide.
Welcome To Twin Peaks Neon Sign Painting
Welcome To Twin Peaks, fire, walk with neon… I’ve long admired the work of David Lynch, from film to sound to canvas. A consummate original, and architect of universes, I strove to capture a symbol of the great Lynch/David Frost series in a new light. Neon, to be specific.

Here is how the entire painting came together, captured in a one minute time lapse.
