Wishing Billy Joel a wonderful 77th birthday. I wanted to try something new with this portrait. I have a lot of brushes I never use, so it was nice to try a bit of everything.
I don't usually post improvement progress checks on here, but I thought this was an interesting case.
This was the first digital piece of Billy Joel fanart, I made in 2021.

Summer and John
It was freezing outside, too cold for Summer to sleep alone in the basement. Just for the night, John invited her to stay in his room. He was okay to sleep on the couch, but Summer wasn't.
He can't sleep; he just stares at the ceiling, avoiding making any real contact with the woman beside him. There are things he's never confessed to anyone. Part of him wants to wake her up now and admit to everything that he's held back, but he can't speak.
Maybe he'll tell her tomorrow.

Summer could tell something was wrong with John. She could see the tension in his shoulders, how his hands were fidgeting more often, how jumpy he was. She never assumed what it was; she just waited for him to tell her on his own terms.
He does, eventually, three days after that night. The storm had passed, and all that remained was melting slush in the grass. She was sitting in the living room, knitting, even though she had made more than enough hats and gloves for everyone. He came in and hesitated, asking her if they could talk.
He tells her everything that he's been holding in; everything makes so much sense to her. He seems relieved, even when he's turned away from her eyes so she can't see the tears.
When she first met him, she knew the job wasn't going to be easy. But holding him in her lap as he sobbed made her remember just how big these things could be.
It was bigger than her.

He doesn't remember being THAT big. But everything is changing so fast that this feels natural.

The Art of Annabelle Edwards (2025) is out now on Itch.io
The Art of Annabelle Edwards 2025 is a 89-page collection of my highest quality work I created in 2025. Featured in the book are 50 pieces of character illustrations, designs, practices, and progress pieces, along with notes about each piece.
The book is split into several parts, featuring different stories or art types.
This book contains themes of depression, suicide ideation, grief, and mental health struggles.
John Dinewood Needs A Break
On his 36th birthday, John Dinewood believes he has reached the end of his life. But when things don’t turn out the way he planned, he makes an offhanded wish to be happier. The wish is overheard by Summer Black, a wandering wishgranter, who ties their souls together and takes responsibility for John’s fate.
Forced into each other’s lives, the two must now navigate the uncomfortable truth of what it really means to be happy.
The Rise and Fall Of Marian Matters
Barely being held together, Marian Matters, a rising showgirl, is being pushed past her limits by a ruthless manager and a demanding industry. At her lowest point, she runs into Montgomery Rogers, her former best friend.
Determined to make amends for the mistakes of his past, Monty does everything he can to pull Marian out of her downward spiral, but just when escaping seems plausible. Tragedy strikes unexpectedly and leaves the world facing the consequences of a life already unraveling.

One of my favorite parts of the holidays is just the beauty of celebrating. When you are sitting around the people you care about, surrounded by decorations.
Summer and John have a quiet holiday season. Before, John never even thought about decorating, but with Summer around, she seems keen on setting everything up. Maroon's old Christmas, the barely working Christmas lights. She even made him stockings.
But still, among all the chaos of life and the holidays, there are moments of quiet. The types where they can sit peacefully by the fire and just read for a while.
