The Cross Keys Pub

This is my painting of the Cross Keys Pub. I did some research about it and found out that it is in Covent Garden. The pub dates back to the 19th century and is decorated with posters and memorabilia from the theater. The cross keys are the keys of St. Peter who is the keeper of the gates of Heaven. I enjoyed painting this picture and had to make myself stop! Our next stop is Kew Gardens. Whenever I hear Kew Gardens I think of Queens, NY. We used to go shopping there when I was a kid.
