Rasta Welcomes Bafana With Giant Artwork

Rasta Welcomes Bafana With Giant Artwork

Bafana Bafana were welcomed by plenty of fans at the airport, including Rasta the Artist who dedicated a painting to the players and head coach Hugo Broos.

What's the story?

As expected, the infamous painter Rasta the Artist worked his magic and showcased his new artwork dedicated to Bafana Bafana.

Hugo Broos and Ronwen Williams led South Africa to their first Africa Cup of Nations medal since 2000 and Rasta was one of many fans who welcomed them at the OR Tambo International Airport today.

Rasta welcomes Bafana with painting

Lebani Sirenje, known as Rasta the Artist, has built a reputation as one of Mzansi's biggest celeb portraitists over the past few years and done plenty of work to honour SA's sporting heroes.

The players and Broos were displayed in different Bafana jerseys, with parts of the South African flag painted in the background.
