Two highland cows stand shoulder to shoulder in deep snow, one head lifted toward you, the other lowered and watching from under its fringe. Craig Hollister built this christmas highland cow painting with a palette knife, laying down thick strokes of golden ochre and rust for the shaggy coats and long curved gray horns.
Above them, a tall twilight sky in lavender and dusky violet is broken by cream and honey-gold streaks of last light, with the first bright stars just starting to show. The snow is cut in flat slabs of pale blue, cream and white, so the whole surface has that chunky impasto texture you can almost feel from across the room.
It's for anyone who loves highland cows and wants something for the season that isn't all red and green. If you've been looking for highland cow wall decor that feels quiet and a little magical, or for christmas art prints with real painterly texture, this pair fits right in.
As large christmas wall art it holds its own above a sofa, a mantel or a sideboard, and the soft purples carry well into winter after the tree comes down. Hang this canvas wall art as your christmas wall decor living room centerpiece, or in an entry where the two cows can greet guests at the door.
