A Frosty Family Christmas by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

A Frosty Family Christmas by P. Buckley Moss is a rare, limited edition lithograph that captures the whimsy and joy of the holiday season through the artist’s enchanting folk art style. The scene shows three snowmen in colorful winter hats and scarves joyfully dancing hand-in-hand around a beautifully decorated evergreen tree. The star shining brightly above the tree adds a spiritual glow, while a circle of cheerful cardinals brings warmth and liveliness to the snowy landscape.

In the distance, additional snowmen gather, suggesting a larger community of celebration, unity, and holiday cheer. Moss’s snowmen, much like her iconic geese, are beloved symbols within her art — playful, friendly figures that embody innocence and togetherness. This print perfectly balances fun and meaning, making it a cherished addition to holiday collections.

Style & Technique

Created as a lithograph, this work highlights Moss’s signature elongated lines, gentle curves, and soft pastel hues. Cool blues and snowy whites dominate the background, while the green of the Christmas tree and the pops of red from the cardinals bring vibrancy to the composition. The round framing of the scene gives the artwork the look of a Christmas ornament, enhancing its seasonal charm.

Because this is a rare limited edition lithograph, it holds special value for collectors. Each print is signed and numbered as part of the publishing process, ensuring authenticity before release.
