Good Friday Crown of Thorns on a Bowed Head

A bowed head with closed eyes fills an oval frame, wrapped in a thick crown of thorns with long sharp spikes pointing out in several directions. Long strands of hair fall down both sides of the face, and a beard covers the chin. The shoulders and neck are sketched below in loose, simple lines, and a faint wavy line crosses the background behind the figure. The mouth is slightly open and the head tilts downward, which gives the picture a quiet, solemn mood. This free printable works well for older kids and teens who can handle the fine detail in the thorns. Try soft browns for the hair and beard, gentle skin tones for the face, and darker greens or grays for the twisted crown. It could also start a calm conversation in a Good Friday lesson about what the crown of thorns represents.
