About Kai:

In order to spend more time with his family, Kai Saarto (b. 1974) traded his successful career in journalism for the uncertain income of an artist. He paints exclusively on digital oils, with results that are virtually impossible to tell from a real oil paintings.

Most of his artistic work is privately commissioned portraits, but he also has an ever expanding portfolio of prints. These are from various subjects, including street scenes, landscapes, military equipment and works inspired by video games.

Kai Saarto lives in city of Turku, Finland, with his wife, sons and two crazy springer spaniels.

________


________

What did Jesus look like?
________

Long hair, beard and robes.
________


________

Mary the mother of Jesus was travelling along the road, When she realised Jesus was not with her. She was disconsolate, as any mother would be at the thought of her 12 year old child missing, so she and the rest of the family back tracked in search of him.

When they found him he was in the temple with a group of rabbis and preachers telling them about the Bible and they were astounded that a child so young should have such a knowledge.

In the Bible it says men should have short hair, Jesus would have known such from an early age and as likely as not he would have had short hair.

The fact is Che Guevara does not look like Jesus. Che Guevara looked like a hairy hippy.
________


________

Ha, ha, ha

But everyone knows Jesus had long hair.
________


________

Read the Bible and there you will find it written.
________


________

But every image of him shows him with long hair.
________


________

That’s because Renaissance artists depicted him in such a way, then everyone copied the style and that is why you now think he had long hair. Have you ever thought of how Jesus might look if you saw him?
________


________

How?
________


________

With long hair.
________


________

But I thought you said he would have short hair.
________


________

Well imagine Jesus in heaven, with his Armani suit on, he looks in his wardrobe and thinks, shit I have to put my robes on and have long hair and a beard otherwise those bastards down there will not recognise me.
________


________

Ha, ha, ha.

Intimidation Factor: JESUS CHRIST by April Moen

09/15/2014

The Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth is one intimidating fellow.

And by fellow, of course, I mean "Holy Creator God of all time, space, and existence." (What's so intimidating about that, right?)

By all biblical accounts, Jesus is loving, accepting, and eminently approachable. But as an artistic subject, He is the most intimidating thing of all - a complete and total enigma.

There is no mention of anything close to resembling a physical description of Jesus in the Bible. In fact, the only thing it contains about His appearance is that He was not a good looking guy. That's it.

About April:

I was born in 1977 with a pencil in my hand, and I remained perfectly content with that medium until 1999 when I got my first computer. I taught myself the basics of Photoshop on a discount copy of PS Elements 7 (trust me, it's downright primitive), and haven't looked back since. After studying Digital Design at The Art Institute, my repertoire expanded to include vector illustrations and digital painting. Now I work as a freelance graphic designer, but my true passion is creating freehand and digital art pieces to share with the world. I hope you enjoy them.

In my personal life, I am married to a wonderful man, am blessed with an awesome son, and I give all the glory to God. He reigns!

Suzanne Powers

Geordie,

Thank you for the beautiful song. It's OK, I didn't see mine until after 20 years and going through a hard place.

Leah,

The important thing is you saw it and know what it is regardless of what others may think although some may see it too. I see it and know it is possible. The neat thing about yours is it's permanent!

Hello Suzanne I also know it is possible, I have seen "it" on numerous occasions.

When I ask, what is it?

The question is not addresses to you Suzanne but should you be inspired to give an answer please feel free.

To get back to the question, what is it?

IT is something that many psychiatrist do not believe in, though they do believe in their own superior intellect.

As they do not believe in "IT" (as many obsessed with their mother) and having a high regard for their own intellectual capacity, they believe their beliefs cannot be questioned, they "put up" with "IT" believers, until one comes along and dares to stand up and tell the truth.

What truth?

The truth of an it believer

What "IT" believer?

That IT believer who claims to have stood by IT and spoken to IT.

There is no such thing as IT, so therefore they are delusional, LOCK THE BAR STEWARD UP - and don't let them out till they see it our way.
