Now that the snowy weather is upon us, why not deck the halls with prints featuring winter landscapes? After all, they can easily be used with a variety of cool weather holidays. So you won’t have to technically swap them out with new artwork until the spring thaw. With that said, here are five winter landscape art collections that would be ideal for holiday decorating purposes: 

Winter Landscape Art Collection #1: Bill Breedon

Are you a fan of early Americana and scenes of pastoral bliss? If so, watercolor artist Bill Breedon is one man to put onto your radar. His paintings of idyllic winter landscapes are tailor made for decking the halls. This is especially the case with the prints that feature a horse drawn sleigh. You’ll be hard-pressed not to at least hum a few bars of Jingle Bells every time you pass by one. Sleigh themed prints to look for include Sleigh Bells, Sleigh Bells Too, O’er the Hills We Go, Back Home Again and Twilight Glow.  

Winter Landscape Art Collection #2: John Rossini

Another artist known for painting wintry countryside scenes is John Rossini. His prints have a distinctive New England feel to them. As such, they would pair well with traditional holiday decorations and candles. Pieces from Rossini’s collection to consider bringing into your home or business include December Glow, February Night, Bringing Home the Tree, Nor’easter and Winter’s Reflections.

Winter Landscape Art Collection #3: Peter Sculthorpe

While we are on the subject of country scenes, artist Peter Sculthorpe is worthy of attention as well. He has a multitude of seasonal prints that feature Pennsylvania’s charming farms, horses and homes. They would pair well with classic decorations like evergreen boughs, wreaths and Yule logs too. His prints of note include Buckskin, Buckboard, Moon Over Hillendale, Melon Basket and The Woodsman.

Winter Landscape Art Collection #4: Camille Pissarro

Do you prefer to surround your family with pictures of snow laden cityscapes instead of farmland? Then Dutch West Indies born artist Camille Pissarro’s body of work is sure to please. Several of his paintings feature scenes from France. Prints that may appeal to your sensibilities are The Avenue de L’Opera, Paris Sunlight Winter Morning and the Chestnut Trees at Louveciennes.

Winter Landscape Art Collection #5: Utagawa Hiroshiqe

Last on our list is artist Utagawa Hiroshiqe. He created a series of woodblock and ukiyo-e style artwork prior to 1858. Understandably, much of his work focused on scenes from Japan. Winter prints to contemplate adding to your collection include Women in the Snow at Fujisawa and View of Mount Haruna in the Snow. You may want to hang them up in areas filled with Asian themed, holiday lights and sculptures.

"When I close my eyes and let the sounds take me away, my mind is flooded with creativity. I can almost visualize the sounds," says artist, Natalie Talocci. 

Natalie Talocci is a local young artist who creates unique abstract art. She has been an artist almost all of her life. Talocci received her Bachelor's Degree of Fine Arts from William Patterson University. She has created many pieces that are full of color and life. Though most of her pieces are of animals on land and underwater, she also has painted many portraits, cultural paintings, and has created sculptures.

This November, Natalie Talocci begins her first solo art show at Gold Light Gallery 's opening on November 8th in New Hope, PA. A lot of Talocci's Pieces were displayed at Gold Light Gallery but her Jelly Fish Invasion series was featured. These pieces show the beauty and uniqueness of unique sea life creatures, Jellyfish. "There is something extraordinary about these gelatinous creatures that drift through water so weightless and free," Talocci says. And that is exactly how her art depicts them. When seeing these original pieces, it's almost like watching these animals in their natural habitat.

Natalie created her Jelly Fish Invasion series in a unique way. She started off with a quick sketch. Then she used hot glue to build borders, this gives the finished product texture and really helps it come to life.

Natalie gets her inspiration from music and other famous artists when creating these pieces. Some of her biggest inspirations are Alphonse Mucha, Keith Haring and Wassily Kandinsky. Talocci also stated that New Hope, PA offers a lot of inspiration. Just down the street from Gold Light Gallery, there is a bridge in which you often find artists sitting out with easels painting the beautiful, scenic view. Her advice to upcoming artists is to find a place like New Hope, PA that will give you inspiration.

Natalie is excited to have her Jelly Fish Invasion series featured at Gold Light Gallery. Her series will be featured throughout the month of November during which these original pieces will be available for purchase.

If you are a fan of abstract paintings, there is a good chance that you’ve at least heard of artist Maeve Harris. For those that have not heard of her, please allow us to make the introduction. She is a versatile, Seattle-based phenomenon that’s known for her intuitive use of organic forms and blending techniques. In addition, she tends to incorporate elements of photos, literature and history into her work. Here’s a look at several excellent examples of her innate talent:

Maeve Harris Collection: Moment Series

Maeve Harris’ Moment Series is a prime example of her brilliant use of brush strokes to create the illusion of movement. The paintings in the series are appropriately titled Moment I and Moment II. In both instances, she blends blacks, whites, yellows and browns to create two distinct, abstract focal points. Because of their abstract nature and coloring, the paintings could very easily be used in a variety of settings.

Maeve Harris Collection: Jetty & Crème Series

Understandably, Maeve Harris does not restrict her color palette to the ones found in the Moment Series. She has two series that would be ideal for use in beach homes or areas ripe with cool tones. Those two series are Jetty and Crème. Each abstract painting in the two series incorporates white and off white colors. The Jetty Series, however, also infuses those colors with shades of blue and green. As such, all four paintings would look wonderful paired with natural items like pressed seaweed, sand sculptures, bowls of beach glass and driftwood fragments.

Maeve Harris Collection: Floral Paintings

No discussion of artist Maeve Harris’ work would be complete without a mention of her floral paintings. She has several collections that focus on flowers. Among the flowers highlighted in the various collections are marguerites, orchids, chiaroscuros and roses. Colors used in Harris’ floral paintings vary greatly. Therefore, it is easy to find one that will fit in with most design schemes.

At its inception, the pop art movement brought relief to those that had grown tired of works created by abstract expressionists. From there, it went on to become one of the most popular art forms of the rebellious 50's and free-wheeling 60's. Today, designers’ passion for decorating with pop art featuring Andy Warhol helps to keep the love affair going.

Warhol, for those readers that may have not been around during the early pop art movement, was born in the 1920's and died in the winter of 1987. His work was renowned the world over. The colorful, iconic images that he used helped to convey what was going on in pop culture, whether the activity was ultimately controversial or not. As such, his artwork often stirred strong feelings in fans and critics alike.

When decorating with pop art featuring Andy Warhol prints, there are several schools of thought to consider. For instance, some interior designers like to display Warhol’s art in areas that match the picture’s subject matter. Others prefer to put the artwork in unrelated, unexpected spots that help jolt viewers out of their rote activities. There are also those that focus more on the colors and patterns inherent in Warhol’s artwork than the actual subject matter.

Take Andy Warhol’s Knives, c.1981-82 picture as an example. It could be hung up in a contemporary dining room or kitchen that has pops of black and cream coloring throughout. On the other hand, it could also be placed in a study or office with his series of Guns artwork and Skull, 1976 to show a love of mystery novels and forensic sciences.

There are other Andy Warhol prints on the market today that feature the artist’s quotes and images. One of our favorites is the one titled, Think Rich, Look Poor. It would look great on display in a bedroom changing area or walk-in closet. As would prints like It Takes a lot of Work to Figure Out How to Look So Good, Diamond Dust Shoes and Two Female Fashion Figures c. 1960.

To learn more about decorating with pop art featuring Andy Warhol, please contact us today. We have many prints of the artist’s work in stock as well as several other pop art prints of note.
