Dr. Usher for Mark Young

Mark Young is a well known portrait painter! His work is AMAZING!!! Check out his beautiful art at www.markyoung.com. Several years ago I was lucky enough to collaborate with him on a project. So I was incredibly honored when he asked me to work with him on a project for a painting of Dr. Usher!

As director of MUSC’s Clinical Cardiology Fellowship Program, Bruce W. Usher, M.D., has trained 115 fellows and recently was honored at a banquet for the rare milestone he reached in passing the 100 mark. You can read about his amazing accomplishments here: https://depthtml.musc.edu/catalyst/2010/co7-2fellows.html.

Since Dr. Usher just retired, the board sought out Mark to paint a portrait of him. And it was my great honor to capture a few “reference photos” by which Mark would create his masterpiece! 🙂
