Look around you. The world is full of empty canvases. Everywhere you turn are empty walls where beautiful pieces of art could be, but often these spaces are overlooked in favor of boring blank nothingness.

Take a look at these before and after pictures of spectacular street art to see what we mean. Compiled by Bored Panda, the gallery below serves to remind us of what our towns and cities could look like if only we used our imagination. Don't forget to vote for the best!

Yeh...wish they'd memorialized a consensual kiss instead of this specific image. Look up the history of this picture if you're unaware - the woman was afraid, grabbed, and trying to push back against her assaulter.
