So this started out as something else. I was inspired by a panel by José Luis García-López. When I think about it now, I am just as confused as to how it got to this point as you may be.
I REALLY wanted to capture the dynamic feel of José’sSuperman coming in for a landing. There is so much energy in this pose. The cape gives the feeling of movement.
I began by doing some rough sketching to no satisfactory level of success. Then I “light boxed” the original piece to get the feel. I played with the proportions and some positioning and I just wasn’t feeling it. After a few passes, I put it away for a while.
When I came back to it an hour later, I decided to just let the original piece inspire me. Just to let go and see where my mind went from the starting point I chose. I was really surprised at the results.
The end result is by no means, my best work. What it became was a journey of self-discovery. I would like to think that this journey will continue in more of my work.

Really enjoy the behind the scenes info about your creative process. Fascinating stuff!
It usually doesn’t go this way. Normally I would have scrapped the whole thing, but this time I just pushed though and embraced the results.
