Dead or alive, no South African is safe from his brush. And this year, his celebrity status soared even higher with his newest drawings of South African and international celebrities.
No matter how many times South Africans told Zimbabwean born artist Lebang Sirenje, Rasta to his fans, to retire, he kept on going and kept on trending.
Whether you agree with him or not, Rasta is not about to stop painting. “Rated best paint artist in S.A. Art is my passion, I tell stories as they are, and let my creativity do the magic,” his Twitter bio says.
Here are five of his paintings that had Rasta trending in 2020:
