Roadside Art
Some more roadside art, Taken whilst on the motorway into Glasgow central It's actually part of a three head installation 20 minutes or so from the town centre ( which I thought was pretty cool, because it's almost situated in the middle of nowhere) . Unfortunately didn't manage to capture all three of them and have been trying to find out the artist responsible for them to no avail, So if anyone recognizes this would majorly appreciate the heads up!
