Go on, let's see your table mats.

What are they of?

Dogs and cats playing snooker?

This artist was born in 1952, ; the market has not looked like that since 1962, when the artist would have been 10 years old. Are you saying that he painted this from memory? There are loads of old photographs knocking around on the net showing more or less the same scene. All this guy has done is copy from a photograph. That does not make a good artist.

My table mats are plain white, to compliment everything else on the dinner table. You, no doubt, use the previous day's 'Sun' newspaper or, maybe if it's a Sunday, the last issue of 'Hello' magazine.
