Our Purrfect Tree by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

Our Purrfect Tree by P. Buckley Moss is a numbered, limited edition giclée that blends holiday cheer with the irresistible charm of Moss’s iconic black cats. Part of both the Moss Christmas Collection and the Historic Cat Collection, this fine art print captures the quiet magic of Christmastime through simple, elegant forms and playful feline personalities.

The scene features a beautifully decorated Christmas tree standing proudly at the center, adorned with bright, jewel-tone ornaments in pink, gold, orange, and sapphire. Its branches stretch outward in Moss’s signature expressive strokes, creating a lively yet peaceful silhouette against the soft background.

Beneath the tree, two sleek black cats lounge comfortably, embodying curiosity and contentment. One cat sits alert, studying the glowing tree above, while the other lies peacefully nearby, enjoying the cozy holiday moment. Scattered ornaments rest on the floor, suggesting the gentle mischief that only cats can create—adding a touch of humor to the quiet elegance of the piece.

Our Purrfect Tree feels warm, nostalgic, and full of character, perfectly celebrating what makes Moss’s holiday artworks so beloved.

Style & Technique

The giclée process beautifully preserves Moss’s watercolor softness and the delicate layering of her color palette. The tree is painted with loose, rhythmic strokes, and the ornaments appear as vibrant dabs of color—each one a burst of festive joy. The cats, rendered in fluid black ink-like forms, provide striking contrast and visual balance.

Moss’s minimalist approach allows emotion and narrative to shine through. The negative space gives the scene breathing room, enhancing the tranquility of the composition and ensuring the cats and tree remain the unmistakable focal points.

Mood & Inspiration

The mood of Our Purrfect Tree is cozy, playful, and full of holiday warmth. Moss captures the feeling of a quiet December evening—lights glowing softly, ornaments shimmering, and beloved pets settling in beneath the holiday tree.

Inspired by her affection for animals and her appreciation of simple, heartfelt moments, Moss creates Our Purrfect Tree that evokes comfort and nostalgia. The artwork celebrates the joy of Christmas traditions, the companionship of pets, and the beauty found in ordinary yet meaningful holiday scenes.

Placement & Gift Ideas

Our Purrfect Tree is well-suited for holiday décor but also charming enough to display year-round in cat-loving homes. It looks wonderful in living rooms, entryways, family rooms, reading nooks, or anywhere the glow of the season is welcomed.
