Jesus, Crown of Thorns is a 30″ × 40″ original painting by Jumper Maybach, executed in acrylic paint and mixed media on stretched canvas. The work reinterprets one of history’s most enduring symbols through a contemporary abstract language that emphasizes emotional intensity, physical gesture, and material depth.
Rather than functioning as devotional imagery, the painting presents Christ as a psychological and human presence. Dripping pigment, layered textures, and forceful mark-making evoke suffering, endurance, and sacrifice while allowing abstraction to replace literal representation. The crown of thorns emerges as a symbol of burden and resilience rather than narrative detail.
At scale, the painting commands space while rewarding close inspection, revealing subtle shifts in texture and surface as light interacts with the materials. Jesus, Crown of Thorns reflects Jumper Maybach’s broader practice of engaging historical and spiritual themes through a modern visual framework rooted in lived experience and contemporary expression.
This one-of-a-kind original painting is offered as a singular work.
