  Painting Process | Berry’s Favorite Place in Larchmont, New York Painting Process | (0)

  And without further adieu: the final piece on the Larchmont series: Berry's Favorite Place. Here is a video of the process. This painting is different in many ways, beginning with the source image. It is a composite of three photographs: one taken from Berry's perspective; a second taken by yours truly to fill in details; and a third, also taken by Berry, of her house in black-and-white, which was placed to the right of the pool in Photoshop. After the jump, a hybrid collage painting process. Continue Reading...

Musicians, artists, St Germain and a crack team joined forces at Gallery 151 to provide entertainment, raise money and gather toys for the children of Haiti. This 20"X20" live painting, which is set for auction, represents my contribution. Here is the video process... coming up next, a few photos along the way. Continue Reading...

  Painting Process | Brad Pitt as Mickey O’Neil in Snatch Painting Process | (8)

  Introducing piece number two in my kick-ass actors in sweet movies I love series: Brad Pitt as Mickey O'Neil, from Guy Ritchie's Snatch. This still was taken from the scene where Turkish and Tommy the Tit make a bet with Mickey (right about 2:15 in) over hare coursing. Sadly for the boxing promoters, the hare is not proper fucked. Get your painting process on to the dope beats created by Nelson Downend, Jr. and Ahmed Mahmoud... aka the Ambershift. After a snap of the TV Screen, I took the image into my computer and made it look like this. A pallor is ...

  Painting Process | Hunter S. Depp A Portrait of Two Men on One Canvas Painting Process | (4)

  If I am in the studio painting, I'm watching movies — all day long. One of my all-time favorites is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas... as it happens, so I decided to capture both Johnny Depp and Hunter S. Thompson as one. Both of these creative gents have brought me a great deal of enjoyment, so I figured why not ride this strange torpedo out to the end? The voice over is a bit much, no? This was my source image. It is a digitally altered still from the movie which was photographed on my TV. After the jump, it gets ...

  Painting Process A Portrait of My Minnesota Bride Painting Process | (4)

  Getting married was the finest experience of my life... and it has everything to do with my bride — Erin. Her folks, Jeanne and Tom, hosted our dream wedding in their Minnetonka, Minnesota backyard this past July. I couldn't think of a better moment to capture than this image of my wife smiling in the backyard where she grew up and where we were married. Here is the process video for this canvas, and below, the source image which was taken by the talented George Flowers. After the jump, photos of the process along the way. Continue Reading...

  Borbay Paints Two Pictures at Disney’s Festival of the Masters Presented by Michaels Collaboration, Painting Process | (3)

  Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of representing ARTPROV at Disney's Festival of the Masters, presented by Michaels. I was commissioned to paint two 24"X36" canvases: one a compilation of the six, live 20-minute ARTPROV shows; the other — a parkscape of Downtown Disney's Pleasure Island. This video recaps the painting of six ARTPROV sessions... you can see the on-stage action in the background. And my Parkscape. After the jump, my painting process for both canvases, in order, as they were created — simultaneously... as well as some other Orlando action. Continue Reading...
