Daniels Place — The Majestic Teton River

During my commute to and from Borbay Studios & Gallery, I often promise to — “get out there and capture Teton Valley’s beauty.”

With my eldest daughter Coraline home-schooling, I found that very moment. As for the location? A generous offer from my good friends Andy and Lisa Daniels presented itself. They allowed us to set-up and paint their breathtaking view of the Teton River.

And so, I set out to challenge myself to create a 40″X48″ painting from life, crafted with a palette knife and loads of Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic Paint.

The Brothers Hyde Painting Process

When I first rolled a 26-foot-Uhaul towing our SUV into Teton Valley, I had no idea what the future would bring. As it happens… the future was bright and beautiful. We found ourselves living in a fabulous community, now known as The Bronze Buffalo Ranch at Teton Springs. Here, we met life-long friends, became addicted to golf and discovered a family in the Tetons.

Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival QuickDraw 2022

For the fifth time in five years, I joined 29 fabulous artist’s on Town Square to participate in the Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival QuickDraw. The rules? Artist’s may complete their works to 25% in advance of the event… at precisely 8:00AM, a horn blows, and we have 90-minutes to create.

Immediately upon completion — the works are live-auctioned in front of a live audience. Stressful? Invigorating? Exhausting? All of this, and more.

‘The Alpha’ — A Golden Eagle Painting by Borbay

The story goes… a Bald Eagle swooped into the lagoon on the 9th at Teton Springs, snagging a big ol’ fish. Euphoria… until, our Golden Eagle pounces and robs the scaled delight. Battered, our nation’s symbol sulked into the woods (to shag my long-lost Pro VX).

And so, when speaking with Tony and Carrie Snoey about the perfect symbol for our slice of Eastern Idaho heaven? The Golden Eagle was it. Black and white brings that fitting touch of noir. Oh, did I mention — this painting is four by eight feet?
