Art on Wild Montana Streets
<p>When I first heard that the August monthly challenge for <a href="https://medium.com/globetrotters" rel="noopener"><strong>Globetrotters</strong></a> is <a href="https://medium.com/globetrotters/august-monthly-challenge-street-art-618f6922fa5e" rel="noopener"><strong>Street Art</strong></a>, I thought I’d have nothing to offer. After all, I live in the wilds of Montana, where there’s no street art or graffiti of any kind.</p>
<p>But is that statement true? As I began to look through my photos from the past year, I found that street art blossoms in Montana.</p>
<p>Take sculpture, for example. I love this big fat bear that squats in front of the general store in West Glacier:</p>
