Imaginative street art, such as this example, is one of many types of environmental sources that can often inspire me. I believe searching for inspiration, or maybe just looking to solve a difficult creative problem, requires briefly walking away (literally) and taking in stimulus from unexpected sources. Your surroundings are full of potential inspiration. Walking around a city like New York, you are bombarded with content that you could never dream of on your own. It can change your perspective, challenge you, tap you into the zeitgeist, and inspire you to contribute yourself.
