Tidings of Comfort and Joy - 3 Muses

Here is my entry for Tidings of Comfort and Joy, the theme for the Three Muses challenge.

I started with Anton Rafael Mengs' (1779) "The Adoration of the Shepherds". It was a freebie from Dover Publications, as was the angel. The shepherd is my husband, dressed for a cantata.
