@RastaArtist left tongues wagging again online following another one of his paintings.
The painter has his days when he makes beautiful portraits. He has been called out many times online for being "disrespectful" towards most of the late public figures, as people feel like he makes ugly portraits of them on purpose.
Defending his work, Daily Sun quoted him saying: "If you're an artist, your paintings must show different sides and angles. That is what confuses people. They don't understand my work," this was after he handed over the late Kuli Roberts' portrait to her friend Pabi Moloi live on eTV's Morning show.
Reacting to the painting of Thabo Mbeki, netizens said he could do better. @Mphomodau asked:

“This guy must stop”: Mzansi reacts to Rasta’s latest painting of DJ Tira
In another article, Briefly News reported about another celebrity painting Raster made.
A few months ago, Rasta left Mzansi furious after he painted the award-winning musician DJ Tira.
DJ Tira is one of the most popular musicians Mzansi has from KwaZulu-Natal, and many people were convinced that he would not like the portrait Rasta made of him
@AdvoBarryRoux shared the portrait on Twitter and caught the online community's attention, which was divided on the quality of the art piece. However, other netizens came guns blazing to find Rasta. One person wrote: "Most of you here couldn't even draw your eyebrows or locusts in general science, but it is OK."
