Jackson, WY and Teton Springs, ID — World-renowned Teton Valley Artist, Borbay, will participate in the Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival QuickDraw, for the first time on Saturday, September 15th, at 9:00AM in Jackson Hole Town Square. Borbay will have ninety minutes to create a masterpiece en plein air in front of a crowd — upon completion, the result will be auctioned to the highest bidder.
The 15th Hole at Teton Springs brings the temptation. From the tee box, you can see the pin, 269 yards in the distance… surrounded by water and sand traps. Should you drive the green, you are looking at an eagle putt… if you miss, that first penalty stroke is easily followed by another, and another.
So, in other words, the forbidden fruit of 15, coupled with the iconic Rammell Barn proved the perfect hole to capture on canvas.

I recently discovered the following, “Any artists living in Idaho for a period of sixteen or more months, is required by law, to create a barn painting. Said Barn must represent at least 40% of the picture plane to be considered a Idaho state approved barn painting.”
And so… I present my painting of Rammell Barn — a landmark located in Teton Springs, of Teton Valley, in Victor, Idaho.
