TX Podiatrist (Former APMA President) Inspires Presidential Portraitist

 

The world first learned that former president George W. Bush had taken up painting in 2013. In the years that followed, other paintings by Bush began to leak out – dogs, cats, a watermelon, a horse, a golf course, and now thanks to his podiatrist and former American Podiatric Medical Association president, Ronald Lepow, DPM…. feet. Works of onychomycotic nails created by Bush have been put on display in an exhibit titled “The Art of the Foot” that spotlights oil-on-board paintings of fungal nails.

Shortly after the exhibition was unveiled last week, Twitter and other social media sites erupted. “I came up with the idea after visiting my podiatrist, Dr. Ronald Lepow, who taught me about the beauty in the complexity of an onychomycotic nail. I believe my exhibit captures the artistic nature of feet that podiatrists see every day, but which often goes unappreciated by others,” said the former president.
