Painting Process The Welcome To Las Vegas Sign Redux 2012

Borbay and Lankin Paint Live at Broadway Bares XXI: Masterpiece in Manhattan

They suggested we paint live at Broadway Bares Las Vegas, which we did, at Planet Hollywood. A few weeks back, Ari received a call requesting the live-painting action for the fittingly named “Broadway Bares XXI: Masterpiece” at the Roseland Ballroom on Father’s Day (the Vegas installment was on Easter Sunday).
