The Bible is not an illustrated book. A drawing is nothing more than the artist's interpretation. I can draw Jesus and color him purple with pink pokadots. It won't make it fact.
Based on depictions of people living in the area at the time. Most of the middle easterners were and still are dark haired with medium skin.
The artists who depicted Adam and Eve most famously were European in the Middle Ages so they pictured people like themselves. I think people painted whatever they can relate to most and that meant physique similar to themselves.
Of course we may never really know.
if adam and eve were white . why are they black people?

Yah it doesn't say in the Bible what color they were. Also, the Bible is not to be taken literally. Whether you believe God made us or the aliens!!!
