The Ashes of Defeat

This illustration was inspired by the outstanding performance that Robert Downey Jr delivered as the genius, billionaire, philanthropist Tony Stark aka Iron Man in the film Avengers: Infinity War by Anthony and Joe Russo.  This piece was also inspired by the amazing music composed by Alan Silvestri for the film, which I listened to while I worked on this.

Jean Grey as the Phoenix

During the mid to late '80's I discovered the X-Men comic books.  I fell in love with Wolverine and I loved the dynamic between him and Jean Grey.  This was my first and only illustration (unfinished) of Jean.  I wanted to draw her while she was tapping into her Phoenix powers of telekinesis.
