St. Michael’s Steeple Charleston, South Carolina 6 May 99This is the twin to the St. Phillip's Steeple in last week's post. I made several paintings of St. Michael's, another National Historic Landmark, while in Charleston. Most notably was the one for the cover of my Christmas CD Out Under the Sky.
