Reggie Kray, do you know my name?

I had a recent convergence of the idea for a painting of the Kray twins as Holbein’s “Ambassadors”, and a desire to cover our dartboard cabinet with an interesting pub sign-style image. It’s my first painting-as-object. The name of our ‘pub’ just came to me, like the image did. And as Ronnie once said, “I’d kill any man who spoke ill of my Mother.”
