While Mzansi still celebrates the big achievement of the Rugby World Cup as a nation, a talented artist has decided to go the extra mile to give our captain, Siyamthanda ‘Siya’ Kolisi his flowers and curate an art piece of him.

The versatility of his craft always has his supporters in awe as he is a master of them all. SK specialises in an art style that comes in the form of customised art rugs, drawing of pencil portraits, broken glass artwork and other forms of art.
The talented SK showed social media the process of achieving the broken glass artwork as he does the final touches of his tribute to the Springboks’ captain.

It is impeccable as to how he achieves his stellar results through just the use of two instruments as the final result is an identical representation of our captain.

Many Instagram users motivated him to be present at the Springboks arrival at the O.R International Airport to hand over the artwork to Siya.
One user said, “Give it to him for free when he brings the World Cup home tonight 🔥🙌.”
While another users suggested, “Siya definitely needs to collect this one 😍🙌🏽.”
The man of the moment himself responded in SK’s comments section upon seeing the art work and said, “I need to meet you please ❤️🙏🏾🇿🇦.”
