Luke 2:8-11

⁸ And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. ⁹ And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. ¹⁰ And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. ¹¹ For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

I created this piece with loose references to Rembrandt’s Annunciation to the Shepherds and Henry Ossawa’s Angels Appearing before the Shepherds. I am senior at Vertitas Preparatory Academy, who enjoys pursuing art as a casual hobby. I hope to minor in studio art in college.
