The Western Motel, Sayre Oklahoma — A Route 66 Painting

Western Motel Painting by Borbay

Ready for some random trivia? I’ve driven across the United States seven times, and spent at least two nights in every state (save for Alaska — I’ve never been).

During those adventures, I’ve traversed every mile of Route 66… also, affectionately known as ‘The Mother Road’. So, when a gentleman with a Route 66 email address signed-up for my newsletter — I had to find out more.

Care to see this beauty come together in 46 seconds? Look no further than the link above… set to the aptly named track, “Borbay 2.0”, courtesy of my guys Nelson and Ahmed.

White Horse Tavern Neon Sign Painting by Borbay

White Horse Tavern Painting by Borbay 2020

2020 is here… and so is my first signed painting — the ‘White Horse Tavern’.  For those of you with literary passion… the ghost of Dylan Thomas lives here.

And, in case you haven’t heard — the White Horse is now owned by Eytan Sugarman — a gentleman I’ve come to know since beginning this piece. I’m looking forward to kicking-it with Eytan at this iconic NYC institution, drink in hand.

Care to join me on a time lapse journey? Here’s sending lots of love to MH the Verb for the 🔥 soundtrack. Call me biased, but I’m partial to those with a ‘Borbay in their hallway’ — I also enjoy imported bottles of vodka from Norway.
