These preservation artists have not only mowed the right of way on Morris Bridge for over 25 years, but have also been an integral part of keeping the area tidy and well kept through construction projects, excessive trash buildup due to interstate traffic, overall, being considerate citizens in their beloved community. I do wish for those concerned to research my comments, and validate my claims.

Famous Key West Green Artist
A short moment of time Hong Kong Willie
The
first time i can remember, The Florida Keys. The long road , narrow
water on both sides. Beach, not to my understanding. Key West, Duval St,
only what tourists see, was my first impression. WOW, that would change
i
received a phone call from Al in Ramrod Key, a Florida Key. A Key that
is about 27 miles from Key West. Al: a rocker, drummer, out there kind a

pool table. and not far is No Name Pub, well there you go, pub, by any
other name spells trouble. Well contrary to your disbelief, what a place
of history. This is where it begins.or When its begins.
This once remote Key, NO NAME KEY,NO NAME PUB, remote, to say the least, pub , when seeing the place, everything you can believe, and more, just from the appearance. Now no matter what you have heard second thoughts still occur.. Its still time turn around, not to night. The Rainbow Trail by Zane Grey, was spoken here, my first exposure to the days of Zane Grey, oh I'm getting ahead of myself. No Name Pub, a Zayne Grey second office in the Keys, later to be one of mine. No Name Pub, the history, the wild west, well, great writers, why they come here, No Name Pub.

You know you have seen it.
Whether you know it as “the Christmas tree” or the “art station,” Hong
Kong Willie’s is a spectacular, unique sight.
Seated in the corner of Morris Bridge and I-75, Hong Kong
Willie’s is a gallery where many unique pieces of art are displayed and
sold.
Always seeing this place on our way to school, former
Editor-in-Chief Pankti Mehta and I had wondered about it for a long
time. At the beginning of this summer, we decided to go there and find
out.
As we walked into the blue shack, we were greeted by a
friendly face. Wearing a blue Hawaiian shirt and khaki shorts, and with
his hair pulled back into a ponytail, Joe Brown, or more commonly known
as Hong Kong Willie, welcomed us and shared with us the story of his
life.
Hong Kong Willie is an artist who finds the meaning in
what others would deem as “junk” items. His journey began in his
childhood when he collected discarded items from the landfill where he
lived and sold them.
“By the time I was eight years old, I was walking around with hundreds of dollars in my pockets,” Brown said.
He had never thought he would enter the realm of art, but
his mother knew otherwise. She was the one who made him to go to art
school.
“My mother believed that if you were born to do something, you were to do that,” he said.
At art school, he met the person who would inspire his
nickname. His art teacher explained the importance and meaning behind
insignificant, common items to her students. She had gone to Hiroshima
shortly after the atomic bomb had been dropped, and then had left out of
Hong Kong. Her inspirational story was the reason Brown nicknamed
himself Hong Kong Willie.
When he was in college, the technological industry was
booming, with many new innovations coming out in different areas of
society. Brown decided to step into it. However, after being in the
technological industry for a while, Brown went through a realization:
“I just wasn’t made up for that.”
Knowing that the technological world was filled with
greed, Brown decided to step out of it in 1981. He knew that his life’s
calling was to be artist, and he was going to be just that.
“We are here to tell a story … to take common items that are not manufactured media that have a meaning.”
He set up his station first in the Florida Keys, but then moved to Tampa, where he has now been living for 37 years.
A firm believer in predestination, Brown explains that he got these beliefs from his father.
“My father understood why he was here. And he made that
of great importance to his children… My father gave me the understanding
of why we were here And to be determined to find that.”
In today’s fast-paced society, teaching of such life
lessons has become rare. People are more motivated to “get famous and
get money,” as Brown put it.
“I’m here just to exemplify and maximize why I’m here. That’s probably the greatest thing that I think is missed in families.”
Hong Kong Willie also explained one of his special
pieces to us, which was called Miriosity. Shaped like a bird, Brown used
the embedded frailties within the wood to bring out the meaning in the
piece.
“Many artists don’t produce more than one great, great,
great piece. And Miriosity, she just has all of those elements…
Miriosity has a great future.”
Hong Kong Willie has supporters who come into his
gallery and buy many of his pieces. With the money that he makes, he
gives back a large portion to various social projects. His art is not
just a business, and he makes that very clear.
“You can only buy a piece of art if you have fallen in
love with it,” he said. He recalled a time when he turned down a buyer
from buying some of his works because he knew the reason for buying
those works was not genuine.
Hong Kong Willie keeps the presence of art alive in
today’s society. Wherever his art goes, a piece of him will forever be
with each piece. We are very grateful for his time and his dedication to
his work.

Philadelphia Eagles Eagle Collectable for Sale
Famous Philadelphia Eagle Carving
25,000
The Story Famous Philadelphia Eagle Redwood Carving
Early years in famous Pennsylvania locations among Philadelphia Eagles Football Club Christmas parties in 1996 and 1997
Name of Owner Held for the Buyer.
The History of Finding the EAGLE
In 1984, during a trip to California with my terminally ill mother, we
passed a wood carving establishment in Monterey California. My mother
spotted a 13 foot tall moose carved from Redwood and immediately said
that that would look good in front of our house in Pennsylvania. Because
of it's odd address, visitors always had difficulty locating our house.
A compromise was made and the seven foot Eagle was purchased instead.
Unfortunately the Eagle did not arrive in Pennsylvania until after my
mother's death.
The Eagle spent its first years in Pennsylvania in the lobby of the
corporate offices of the Sports Factory, which was a chain of Health and
Racquetball clubs.
In the spring of 1995, the Eagle was moved to the Melange Restaurant and
Nightclub in the Warwick Hotel which was located on the corner of 17th
and Locust Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Melange sponsored and
hosted the Philadelphia Eagles Football Club Christmas parties in 1996
and 1997. The parties benefited the Marine Corps Toys for Tots Charity
and the Eagle acted as a symbolic "Christmas Tree" for the donated toys
to be placed around.
On July 9th, 1996 Melange was the official caterer for the Major League
Baseball All-Star Game and the Eagle stood guard at the entrance to the
catering tent at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia.
Also in 1996, the Eagle stood at the entrance to the country of Spain's
exhibition at the Fancy Food Show held that year at the Philadelphia
Convention Center.
Again in the fall of 1996, the Eagle was prominent at a press conference and dinner by President Bill Clinton at Melange.
Many celebrities and sports stars lined up to have their picture taken with the Eagle during its tenure at Melange.
In 1997, the eagle retired to the state of Florida. Belleair Beach
became its new home where the Eagle overlooked the Intercoastal Waterway
for the past 21 years. I believe it was about 2010 when it moved a
couple of houses closer to the point, to the location in which you found
it last night.
Sold To Artist Hongkongwillie in 2017
https://hongkongwillie-preservationist.blogspot.com/...
I am very grateful and appreciative that the Eagle has found a new home
with two very nice people, who although I have just met, I feel sure
will take excellent care.
It was a real pleasure to meet Hongkongwillie. I wish you the very best and I hope that you will stay in touch.
