Picture this: The artist "Jeks" poses for a portrait in front of a new mural he is working on at RED Cinemas on Battleground Avenue.

Eye of the beholder: Artist Matt Adnate takes a break from painting a large mural of a Lumbee Indian on an overpass in Greensboro.

Seeing is believing: Walk behind The Forge along railroad tracks off West Lewis Street and look for the late rapper Mac Miller, far larger than life.

A glimpse of history: An artist from Ireland called Aches paints a portrait of late Greensboro attorney J. Kenneth Lee on East Washington Street.

Made you look: A mural called “Rising Tulips” was created by artist Nils Westergard near the Depot train station off Washington Street.

View from here: The artist "Jeks" used his own baby picture to paint this mural on the back of the Westover Gallery of Shops.
