Pushed to the Edge of Fiscal Cliff and all I can do is talk about pineapples

My latest daily painting is the Pineapple Fountain in Charleston's Waterfront Park.  Since this week's theme has been Charleston, South Carolina images, I thought the Pineapple Fountain would be appropriate to add to the mix even though it is a new (2005) addition to the city's architecture.  This fountain does indeed resemble a pineapple.  It is part of the lovely view of the Cooper River.  I was happy to learn that in 2007 the park was awarded the Landmark Award for landscape architecture completed between 15 and 50 years ago.

So there's a little bit of knowledge for the day and here's my rendition of the fountain.
