Sculptor
“Works in Progress”
Mark P. Seraly, MD is a Board-Certified Dermatologist with a
particular interest in skin cancer, surgical skin cancer management,
infectious skin diseases and autoimmune skin disorders. Dr. Seraly
has authored 30 medical publications and has been an invited guest lecturer
175 times in 23 U.S. states and 11 cities in 7 foreign countries. He is
an active member of the teaching faculty for the University of
Pittsburgh Department of Dermatology residency program. Dr. Seraly is
also a professional bronze sculptor with a particular interest in Native
American Indian themes and mid-18th to early 19th century United States
history.
"Rodin once said"
that art is a function of having an innate understanding of what one is
trying to do, hard work, and studying the masters. Having a background in
medicine and human anatomy, hard work, and studying the masters have
fueled my passion in portrait and figurative sculpture. I started
sculpting in 1996. An interest suddenly became a passion. I decided that
I did not want to wait until I was retired from medicine to pursue an art
career. So I decided to do both. I could not, however, begin such a task
without the unconditional love and support given to me by my wife,
Loretta, and my children Mark, Sylvia, Paul and Julia.
