Two children from different sides of the world said he looked like this, a painting by Akaine Kramakik
The boy, Colton Burpo, is the one who went to Heaven in movie/book 'Heaven is For Real' saw her painting and said 'that's Him, Jesus' who He was with in Heaven.
That's their image of Him so we'll see😍✨

Hello Lucia.
The Bible tells us that Jesus looked like an average middle eastern man but, just like you i am also very drawn to know what He really looked like.
The picture that Tabin mentioned above is significant because it was 'seen' by two children in different locations who had a profound spiritual experience. One of them had a near death experience i believe.
So, i am also very drawn to this because God has given us 5 senses, so i use these senses to reach God and i want to know what Jesus looked like, sounded like and what it would feel like to touch His hand or hug Him.
So it's a very natural feeling for some people to have this desire to know what Jesus looked like.

It is a composite/collage. I was really getting the hang of doing representatives of Jesus
but it was offensive to some people, who, even though they were by and large against
saying we had to keep the law, they acted like I was breaking some law LOL. So I mostly
stopped doing them, though not completely... This was one of my earlier ones:
John 3:16

Heh, are you sure you want to know? I could talk your ear off about it LOL. Basically, I collect what is called ephemera, which can be anything from borders, frames, and backgrounds, to individual items like butterflies, flowers, special effects, etc, and all manner of things, really... anything I think I can make use of. These things are mostly offered for free on sites where others make them available for personal projects with the caveat of no commercial gain, which I am fine with. I work in photoshop, layering the elements together, after positioning, sizing, colour correcting, and making other edits/adjustments to each piece the bring it into harmony with the overall panel, changes including contrast, saturation, hue, lightness, exposure (those two sound the same but are different) and opacity...

I start with a face and then alter it, usually and almost always starting with swapping out the eyes.
I have more and more honed in on doing faces as I have continued this work. It is all very experimental.
I have been doing this since 2018. In the last couple of years in one folder I have a lot of my new
ephemera saved since I got this laptop for Christmas two years ago... it has 3,097 items in it. I have
a separate folder for all my faces and human things, lots of eyes and mouths and different people's
faces that I take parts of to add to a different face. My human elements folder has 3,764 Files.

I will show you an example .. I started with this face/painting:
I put her within a frame/border set-up I composed on a background of my choosing. This gets
fiddled with quite a bit throughout the creation process, but a great deal of the work is on the
face and figure itself. I changed the face dramatically as you can see below, and also altered
the colour of the hat and then changed the bow to look more real as well. I liked two different
border arrangements both so much I decided to use both by making the panel a gif.
Normally working parts are too distracting but I felt it worked okay with this one.
Acts 20:24
