A September Update From The Studio — Borbay’s Bubbles and More
Every month or so, I fire off updates from the studio. Here is the latest… if you’d like to receive these directly, just let me know.
Upper East Side Town House Portrait at Twilight
I spent the first 8 years of my adult life in the Upper East Side… so, it would seem fitting that my first painting started and completed in Minnesota would be this Upper East Side Town House.

Painting Process: Central Park Southeast at Twilight
Central Park Southeast… at Twilight… my third Futurist Revival canvas. Many of these buildings hold a special place in my heart… but I’ll get into that later.
