Nativity - First Shepherd by Andrew Smith

Comments

This is the first of six figures I'm creating for my church this December, with the help of a friend with a jigsaw, and donated plywood, to bring a little hope to our COVID-plagued land; enjoy! Love and God bless, Andy

Absolutely beautiful, Andy. So life-like, I could almost believe that he was actually standing there, leaning against the wall. So look forward to seeing all the other figures. xx
