STICKS!!!!!!!!





Sticks! I take a stick from the street, peel the bark off, sand it and paint it. Then I put the sticks back into the neighborhood where they were originally found, one by one. It feels nice to walk with a stick.
I have been working on this project for a few months now, and last night was the first time I put a stick back into the world. A few hours later, when I passed the spot where I had left it, it was gone.
Thanks to Neil for taking the first four pictures.

It did perhaps, stick out and entice someone to sticky finger it and I hope this idea sticks because there are a lot of people out there who need sticks. I am serious. ma
