About this Work:
This bottlecap portrait was specifically commissioned by MUSC (the Medical University of South Carolina) to celebrate the extraordinary career of Charleston’s own master blacksmith, Phillip Simmons (Born in 1912, and a lifelong Lowcountry resident)
Simmon’s work can be found all over the Charleston peninsula. His work can be found at the most expensive multi-million dollar mansions, and also in the poorest of Charleston’s neighborhoods.
