Description

I joined the 6-Day FAA Letter Game Challenge for the word ‘Season’ in December 2023 and I created this artwork today for Day 6 Letter N for Night. I enjoy working in graphic art and wanted to create Christmas bible verses in a decorative fashion for the holidays, a theme near and dear to my heart. This verse is from the book of Luke, Chapter 2, Verses 8-11 (Luke 2:8-11) which are verses describing the angel, announcing the good news to the lowly shepherds in the fields of Bethlehem – this is how I imagined the scene. I started with a vintage antique painting from the public domain of a night scene with stars, which I edited to add a few more stars. I added an angel into the scene, as well as silhouettes of shepherds, which I also created from a silhouette in the public domain, beefing up the right sided shepherd’s crook to look like it was made from a tree branch. I positioned the other shepherds, which I duplicated and edited from the original shepherd, around the angel. I added brightness and auras to the angel as well. I inserted the bible verses at the top of the image, giving a blue glow around the words.
