Mad Cows

this is "globetrotter" near my work - as taken on my mobile phone

Edinburgh is taking part in this bringing art to the streets project. Practically everywhere you look there is a cow staring back at you. Its called the cow parade and the idea is that over 100 cows are designed and painted by locals, visitors etc and then sold for charity. Splendid.... or mad?? Jamie thinks it stupid but i have a kind of excitment when i see a new one i hadnt noticed before. Theyre definately good for the tourists. I'm just impressed that only one has been knicked so far! (found again missing a leg :-( what were they doing ?). So what do you think ...art ???
