Crown of Thorns, Crown of the Curse

Here is my rendition of Christ wearing the crown of thorns. This is the pencil version that has been touched up in Coral-Paint. This is a cropped version - I like it better than the full size. Also, I painted it using Corel Paint. And I did a background in watercolor and then worked on it more with Corel. I seem to favor the B&W version over the painted version, though I do like the textures of the scarlet purple robe that is in the painted and full sized version. Also, I present my inspiration for the piece and a fascinating study of Roman crowns and symbolism thereof, if you are interested in such things:

Feedback of any kind is welcomed.

PEACE

That's verra nice, man. If I had more artistic talent, I'd probably have something constructive to say. As it is, I like your rendition of the moment a lot.

I like that this Jesus actually looks kinda Jewish.
