Christina,

Thanks for the link to

Yes, there are portraits of the "Masters" on this website.

See:

Also I discovered that you can

"talk directly with the Master Maitreya in real time on the chat site 
in private!" FOR A FEE!

Maitreya takes Visa and Mastercard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See:

Compare the above with what H.P. Blavatsky wrote:

"Great are the desecrations to which the names of two of the Masters 
have been subjected. There is hardly a medium who has not claimed to 
have seen them. Every bogus swindling Society, for commercial 
purposes, now claims to be guided and directed by 'Masters' often 
supposed to be far higher than ours! Many and heavy are the sins of 
those who advanced these claims, prompted either by desire for lucre, 
vanity, or irresponsible mediumship . . . . The sacred names of 
Occultism and the holy keepers thereof have been dragged in this 
filthy mire, polluted by being associated with sordid motives and 
immoral practices, while thousands of men and women have been held 
back from the path of truth and light through the discredit and evil 
report which such shams, swindles, and frauds have brought upon the 
whole subject." The Key to Theosophy, p. 301
