Mac Miller's untimely passing last week shocked fans in his hometown of Pittsburgh, but the outpouring of grief has come from around the world.

Among those grieving is North Carolina artist JEKS (find his Instagram page here), who felt the need to memorialize the Pittsburgh rapper the best way he knew how.

The result is an incredibly detailed 15-foot mural of Miller, real name Malcolm McCormick, on an outside wall of a Greensboro creative arts facility.
