Art in London that I am excited about besides the museum artwork is the street art. I already love going around to murals throughout Kentucky and just taking pictures and standing in awe at the large work on the side of a building. Sometimes I will even just drive and see how many murals I can find like a large game of artwork hide-and-seek. and with London being a big city, of course the street art there is bold and large to color the city with beautiful art. Artisits tend to create pieces that reflect their political and social values in their art and even people like Banksy wanting to leave their mark on the famous city. I can't wait to walk around for hours while visiting these amazing pieces of art. 

In Scotland, the artwork that I am interested in visiting are the more "sculptural" works. I connect Scottish art with larger and more sculpted or "interactive" compared to art seen everywhere else. Obviously, the first thing that comes to mind when talking about large-scale Scottish sculpture is the legendary Stonehenge (which I am STOKED to see), but other artworks from older metal work from the Celts are very interesting to me. I feel like the art here is super unique and will be interesting to see the difference of art in both London and Scotland.
