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.

Another newsletter? You got that right. I'll honor and respect your inbox, as if it were my own. I endeavor to share everything happening at Borbay Studios & Gallery. No daily updates. No weekly updates. Simply a message, every month or two... updates on life, creativity, and the journey that began on July 2, 2009. Let's be in touch, as the first leg of my quest reaches completion in 2026. From a studio in my 600-foot Upper East Side apartment living room, to a museum collection. Oh, but friend, that is just the beginning. The road is long, and I am looking for cool, sophisticated company to navigate each challenging turn.
You're here, and I love you for it.
