JESUS ON THE COVER OF POPULAR MECHANICS

As you can plainly see, the team that put together this speculative portrait of the Incarnation who was born 2008 years ago (about one-third of the earth's lifespan, according to Mike Huckabee) was guided by the same cosmic hand that collaborated on Jesus and the Bear. Gone are the golden tresses and pale Pre-Raphaelite skin; present are the long yogi's eyes and flat-tipped nose*, as described by Sri Ramakrishna**, to whom this speculative portrait bears more than a passing resemblance. Thus it is that science and mysticism, the Siamese twins of enlightenment, work side-by-side for the benefit of inquiring minds everywhere.

* Loss of nose-tip accounted for in my painting.

**In his vision of the Messiah.
