Lebani 'Rasta' Sirenje has made his mark countless times with his unique paintings. Rasta recently 'ran out of paint' and asked South Africans to donate money to him so he could buy more.

Now, the famous artist has painted Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in celebration of the announcement of their second pregnancy. Rasta 'honoured' the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with a rather peculiar painting, only he could make.

Once again, Rasta received a little trolling from SAns. Others complimented his special art that is quite unique and abstract.
