Support the work of the Countryside Alliance and brighten up someone’s day with one of our beautiful Christmas card designs.
We are delighted to present this year’s Countryside Alliance Christmas card collection, a carefully chosen range that reflects the very best of rural and field sports artistry. These cards capture not only the beauty of the festive season but also the essence of the countryside we work so hard to protect.
Our artists draw on deep knowledge and first-hand experience of rural life. From wildlife encountered in the wild hills and fields, to the bond between horse and rider, to the quiet watchfulness of a hare in winter, their work resonates with all who value our countryside traditions. Each card carries with it a story and a sense of place, making it a thoughtful way to share festive greetings with friends and family.
By sending these cards, you are also directly supporting the vital campaigning and charitable work of the Countryside Alliance. Every purchase helps us defend rural life, protect our heritage and ensure that future generations can enjoy the countryside as we know it.
Anna Clare Lees-Buckley – Rushing for Dinner
Anna Clare is a sporting artist specialising in large-scale oil paintings of British game birds and birds of prey. A bold contemporary style is underpinned by classical training gained during four years at the Florentine atelier Charles H Cecil Studios. Most of her works concentrate on the bird itself, free of habitat, with an extraordinary level of detail. The result is an arresting painting that works equally well in a modern or traditional setting. Rushing for Dinner exemplifies this approach, bringing game birds vividly to life with her trademark precision and energy. Click here to add this design to your basket.
Mary Ann Rogers – Curious Cattle
Mary Ann Rogers is one of the UK’s top wildlife artists, living and working in the wild hills just south of the Scottish border, where encounters with wildlife are part of everyday life. Her work is highly sought after and collected by art buyers worldwide. She conveys her passion for the subjects with vibrancy and integrity, drawn from an intimate knowledge that invariably strikes a chord. Click here to add this design to your basket.
Daniel Crane – Safe & Sound
Daniel Crane's Safe & Sound depicts the quiet, almost sacred moment that unfolds when a rider has settled their trusted hunter comfortably in its stable after a day following hounds. The bond between them, forged through hours of partnership, becomes palpable in the warmth of this shared stillness. The horse, tired but content, stands in the soft glow of the stable light, its breath slow and steady, with a manger full of hay. For those who truly understand animals, this moment carries a sense of gratitude and recognition for the hunter’s hard work and loyalty. Click here to add this design to your basket.
Annabel Pope – Winter Watch
Annabel Pope is a renowned British artist, celebrated for her ability to capture the beauty of wildlife in its natural habitat. Whether portraying UK wildlife or people’s beloved pets, she conveys the unique personality of each subject.
In Winter Watch, Annabel’s skilled use of watercolour brings to life a brown hare, sitting alertly in a snowy landscape. You can almost feel the chill in the air from the hare’s frosty whiskers. Her deep understanding of her subject allows her to capture the beauty and quiet watchfulness of this winter scene. Click here to add this design to your basket.
