A STREET artist has left a picture of Kate Moss on all fours and in a “Playboy-style” bunny suit on the side of a pub in Kilburn, writes Alina Polianskaya.

Camden-based graffiti artist Pegasus said his work on the side of the Betsy Smith pub on the Kilburn High Road was meant to be a “tongue in cheek piece, just in time for Easter”.

He added: “That’s why I chose to paint her in a Playboy bunny outfit. I chose Kate Moss because I just absolutely love her. I have always admired her and think she’s stunning.”

Pegasus added that the artwork, mixing pink and purple patterns, took him three hours to complete. 

Oliver Killick, 23, assistant manager at the pub, said: “I think the piece is quite cool, though it looks a bit odd with just the one thing on quite a large wall.” Ms Moss, 40, recently posed for Playboy in the costume. The magazine later threatened legal action against other news sources that used the pictures from the photoshoot.
