First off since christians believed that Jesus was God in the flesh and the OT said not to make any graven image of anthing in heaven I think they had serious doubts about describing or issuing a portrait. More importantly your wish is irrelevent to the purpose of Christ coming.
Well, since the earliest Christians had quite a few views on whether they accepted the OT, many of them weren't Jews, and many of them didn't agree that Jesus was divine at all, that might be hard to prove.
At the same time I doubt that anyone who actually dealt with Jesus on a daily basis had occasion to paint a portrait.
