We Present You 38 Awesome Street Art Examples You’ve Probably Never Seen Before
Imagine this: you’re walking down a street when suddenly a chasm appears right in front of you and since you weren’t paying attention you can’t stop in time and you start falling… just – you’re not falling. You prepared for a certain death in lava and you just kept walking.
If you look closer you will see that it’s just a street art example that is so realistic it actually managed to scare you. Whether you admit it or not. Some street artists are getting so good that it’s hard to tell their art is in fact only drawn. It isn’t only about the pavement, some murals are also breathtakingly realistic – you’ve probably seen many examples around the internet. But, today we are bringing you something new, fresh, something you’ve never seen before when it comes to street art. We hope you’ll enjoy the view.
