“And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, because she thought, ‘If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.’ Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.” ― Matthew 9:20-22

I’ve just finished another digital artwork, and I must say, this piece holds a special place in my heart. As I always do, I poured a part of myself into it, but this time, it wasn’t just an artistic effort—it was an act of devotion. With World Children’s Day just around the corner, I wanted to dedicate this week to celebrating children in art, and what better way to do so than by bringing to life a character from a series that has touched so many hearts? This is my fan art of Abigail, a spirited little girl from the hit Christian series, "The Chosen."

Let me tell you about Abigail. She’s not just a fictional character but a reflection of the innocence, curiosity, and unwavering faith we often associate with children. She appears in the third episode of the first season of "The Chosen", an episode aptly titled "Jesus Loves the Little Children." This episode tells the story of how Jesus befriended a group of children in Capernaum, including Abigail and her best friend, Joshua. It’s a touching narrative that shows Jesus not as a distant figure but as someone who welcomed, taught, and loved children deeply. That’s what inspired me to create this artwork—to celebrate that moment when faith, childhood, and divine love intersect.

Abigail is depicted here as a 9-year-old girl living in the Galilean city of Capernaum around 30 CE. In the series, she’s portrayed as a curious, intelligent child who asks endless questions—sometimes to the amusement and sometimes to the bewilderment of those around her. I tried to capture that playful yet thoughtful energy in her expression. Her eyes are wide and bright, filled with curiosity and a hint of mischief as if she’s just about to ask another question that no one’s quite ready for. I imagined her standing outside on a sunny day, perhaps on the outskirts of Capernaum, the same place where she first encountered Jesus.

Her outfit is simple yet meaningful. I based it on the tunic design seen in the live-action series, which reflects the modest clothing of the time. The tunic’s light-coloured fabric symbolises innocence and purity. I added a small detail which is also from the show, the doll she’s carrying in a belt tied around her waist. The doll represents the warmth and simplicity of childhood, a reminder that even in ancient times, children found ways to express themselves through play. The sash holding the doll is yellow, a colour of hope and light, which perfectly complements the calm tones of her outfit.

When designing her hair and complexion, I drew inspiration from a children’s book titled Jesus Loves the Little Children. This book, created by the same team behind The Chosen, reimagines Abigail in a way that’s visually more accessible to kids. Her rich brown hair flows loosely around her shoulders, with a few gentle curls that frame her face. Her skin, sun-kissed from days spent outdoors, reflects the warmth of the Mediterranean climate. I love how these features bring her character to life, grounding her in the world of ancient Galilee while still making her relatable to children today.

The background of the artwork was just as important to me as Abigail herself. I wanted to create a setting that felt authentic yet inviting, one that could transport viewers back to the time of Jesus. The path she’s standing on is earthy and uneven, surrounded by trees in full bloom, their branches reaching out like open arms. The sky above is a clear blue, dotted with soft clouds that seem to drift lazily by. This backdrop, though simple, is meant to evoke a sense of peace—a moment of stillness where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, much like Abigail’s encounter with Jesus.

As I worked on this piece, I couldn’t help but think about the upcoming animated series, The Chosen Adventures. This 14-episode spin-off is designed specifically for kids, extending the storytelling of The Chosen in a way that’s both entertaining and spiritually enriching. Abigail is one of the characters set to appear in this series, and I’m thrilled to see how her story will unfold. The creators have described it as "entertaining and transformative," and I believe that’s exactly what it will be. For children watching, it’s a chance to see themselves in the characters, to feel that connection to faith and history in a way that’s both fun and meaningful.

But let me rewind a bit and tell you about the context in which I created this artwork. This weekend has been anything but ordinary. There’s a typhoon approaching, and it’s predicted to make landfall in an area not far from where I live. The thought of power outages loomed large in my mind as I started this piece, and I knew I had to work quickly. It was a race against the clock, but also against nature itself. Every stroke of my digital brush felt like a small act of defiance, a way of saying, "Even in the face of uncertainty, beauty and faith will prevail."

As I worked, I found myself praying—not just for the safety of my community, but for everyone in the typhoon’s path. Something is humbling about creating art amid a storm, both literal and figurative. It reminded me of how Jesus calmed the storm for His disciples, and how His presence brought peace even in the most chaotic of moments. In a way, this artwork became my little act of faith, a reminder that even when the skies darken, there’s always light to be found.

One of the most moving aspects of The Chosen is its portrayal of Jesus as a teacher and friend, someone who meets people where they are and shows them the love of God in ways they can understand. This is especially evident in the episode featuring Abigail. When she and the other children discover Jesus’ camp on the outskirts of Capernaum, they’re hesitant at first but quickly drawn in by His kindness and warmth. He teaches them through parables and simple truths, showing that the Kingdom of God is not just for the wise and learned, but for everyone—including children.

Abigail, with her endless questions and boundless curiosity, embodies the spirit of a child seeking understanding. Watching her interact with Jesus is both heartwarming and thought-provoking. It’s a reminder of the simple, childlike faith that we’re all called to have—a faith that trusts, questions, and seeks without fear. That’s what I wanted to capture in this artwork: not just Abigail as a character, but the essence of what she represents. She’s a symbol of the openness and wonder that come with being a child, qualities that often get lost as we grow older.

As I put the finishing touches on the piece, I felt a deep sense of gratitude. I am grateful for the ability to create, for the inspiration that comes from stories like The Chosen, and for the opportunity to share my work with others. Art, for me, is more than just a hobby or a profession; it’s a way of connecting with something greater than myself. It’s a way of expressing my faith, my hopes, and my dreams in a form that others can see and feel. Through art, I can communicate emotions and experiences that words alone cannot capture. It allows me to tap into a universal language that transcends barriers and connects us all on a deeper level.

When the world celebrates Children’s Day on Wednesday, I may revisit the episode "Jesus Loves the Little Children." It’s a story that never fails to move me, and I hope this artwork captures even a fraction of its beauty and message. In the meantime, I’ll be praying for safety as the typhoon approaches, trusting that, like Abigail, we can all find moments of peace and light even amid life’s storms. As I work on this piece, I am reminded of the power of art to convey emotions and truths that.

In creating this piece, I’ve realised that art and faith are deeply intertwined. Both are acts of creation, ways of bringing something into the world that wasn’t there before. And both require a certain amount of trust—trust in the process, trust in the message, and trust in the One who inspires it all. Abigail, with her wide eyes and open heart, is a testament to that trust. She reminds us that faith is not just about knowing all the answers, but about being willing to ask the questions and follow where they lead.

So here it is—my fan art of Abigail, a little girl who reminds us of the power of curiosity, the beauty of innocence, and the boundless love of God. As the wind begins to pick up outside and the skies grow darker, I find comfort in her story, in the reminder that even amid uncertainty, we are never alone. And as I share this piece with you, I hope it brings a little light to your day, just as it has to mine. May we all be inspired by Abigail's spirit of curiosity and innocence, and may we remember that even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of hope to hold onto.

“A woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years, but no one could heal her. She came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped. ‘Who touched me?’ Jesus asked. When they all denied it, Peter said, ‘Master, the people are crowding and pressing against you.’ But Jesus said, ‘Someone touched me; I know that power has gone out from me.’ Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at his feet. In the presence of all the people, she told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. Then he said to her, ‘Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace’.” ― LUKE 8:43-48 NIV

The Chosen S03E05

“(...) Such a fulness of grace is there in Christ, that from it we may all receive Christ’s great favour to this woman. He did not suspend (as he might have done) his healing influences, but suffered this bashful patient to steal a cure unknown to any one else, though she could not think to do it unknown to him. And now she was well content to be gone, for she had what she came for, but Christ was not willing to let he to so; he will not only have his power magnified in her cure, but his grace magnified in her comfort and commendation: the triumphs of her faith must be to her praise and honour. He turned about to see for her (v. 22), and soon discovered her.” Matthew Henry’s commentary on Matthew 9:20-25
