I will never cease to be amazed by the places people can find to make art. For true creatives, it honestly is all around. I've noticed a few artists lately who make it out of, quite literally, nothing (ok, discarded pencil stubs in one case, which might as well be nothing). Like, there used to be a hole there and now it's filled with art. Let me show you what I mean...

Speaking of potholes, artist Juliana Santacruz Herrera fills those found in Parisian streets with beautifully colored, braided yarn.

Photographers
Claudia Ficca and Davide Luciano have taken a much different approach to potholes, creating entire scenes around them and then photographing the scenes.

Tired of potholes? Me too. German artist Jan Vormann has become vigilant about repairing cracked walls. His medium of choice? Legos. More

Now for those pencil stubs I promised you. Dalton Getty makes tiny sculptures in the lead of pencils. Without a magnifying glass. Be prepared to be stunned.

What do you think? There's some pretty crazy stuff and super talented people out there. Have you come across any awesome conceptual art that we missed?
