Mr. Joe Stick
Walking Stick No. 0012
A name for this stick. What thoughts did it evoke when looking at this stick. None. At first I was thinkings its just your normal everyday walking stick. Barnesy( Jimmy Barnes) came to mind. You know singing the Aussie song Working Class Man. Cause this is just your every day working class walking stick. But then hang on, Barnesy is no normal bloke and this stick whilst it has that average Joe look is no every day working class stick. Your average everyday walking stick is usually a straight stick with a seperate handle placed on top . Two piece. Or it been cut into your normal shepard hook shape out of a pieces of commercial timber.
This magnificent everyday stick is one natural piece of a eucalypt tree branch. It hasn't been carved or cut from a piece of wood . It grew. Nature made it. It's not straight ,it's crooked. I helped it see that it was a truely gorgeous natural timber walking stick. I guess made it look a bit like your average Mr, Joe Stick but it's much more than that.
