A prolific Sydney street artists has unrelieved a mural in memory of late pop icon George Michael

It was commissioned by musicians Paul Mac and Jonny Seymour, who worked with the star during his time in Sydney.

'The guys who live in that building, they were both friends with George Michael and I had already been speaking with them about painting their wall,' Marsh told The Music.

'They were telling me stories about him and their times with him in Sydney and he sounded like a pretty incredible person, so I just sat down with them and threw some ideas around.

'The idea we stuck with was him as the patron saint of the gays.'

The George Michael Mural is on a wall in Concord Street, Erskineville.

It can also be seen from the Illawarra train line.
