Christmas Holly

A quick study of variegated holly with two shiny ornaments for Christmas.  A bit more impressionistic than usual.  I planted the holly topiary tree a few months ago to be able to make a few snips for Christmas decorating.  It has been growing very slowly which made this little bit about all the plant could spare for a trim, and it is quite spikey so all those red tips you see are sharp and need to be avoided.
