Glasgow is well-known for its street art. So much so, that you can find a walking map of a kind-0f mural scavenger hunt. Lisa and I had a great time hunting them down and inserting ourselves into the art.

This map is a little dated, but it’s what we used.

Let’s the hunt begin!

Artistic interpretations on Argyle Street

Artistic interpretations on Argyle Street (I love this one)

Life imitates art!

Aren’t we silly?

The giant panda on Gordon Lane (another favorite of mine)

“The World’s Most Economical Taxi” on Mitchell Street

“Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” on Mitchell Street

Interesting clientele at the Argyle Street Cafe

Lisa ponders like an elephant

The mural wraps around the corner!

The badminton mural on Wilson Street was created in anticipation of the 2014 Commonwealth Games

“Space Man” by Recoat and Ali Wyllie

A fascinating mural at Howard and Dunlop Streets that wraps around three sides of a building!

Impossible to photograph, but really fun to see

This amazing mural was created by Rogue-One and Art Pistol

That cat looks mighty hungry…

“A View of the Clyde” gives passersby a view of what really lives in the River Clyde

This is a redo of the original tiger displayed along the Clyde Walkway

“The Five Faces” can be found along the underpass under Central Station

I desperately wanted to capture the moving traffic, but I left the travel tripod in our hotel room

That would be me – trying (dismally) to take night photography without a tripod
