she seems to be floating just fine and her umbrella can act as a sail,
really she will be fine folks, i just feel it ….....

BLYTHART, 5 months ago

She may be drowning, but fair play to the girl … she’s doing it with impeccable style :))

Zsuzsa Korody, 5 months ago

Great!!! Very unique style…

kcranmer, 5 months ago

You do such beautiful work!!

BTW…I have to get this off my chest…every time I view your profile pic you remind me of the famous actor who plays in the recent spiderman movies. Gosh I can’t think of his name right now…but I swear you can be twins.

Ok…take care, lol.

Andy Mercer, 3 months ago

I see a metaphor for the modelling world in this work.. all dressed up and showy but wretched inside.. starving away.. and gradually sinking as they try to keep up appearances ?

Anastasiia Kuc..., 3 months ago

unique!

SherryBrown, 2 months ago

Her expression is wonderfully sad. Is she drowning in tears?

Paul Compton in reply to SherryBrown’s comment, 2 months ago

I don’t know. There’s an accompanying piece to this which is a short animation I made in 2006 called Boy Drowning – he drowns in his own tears. Thank you for commenting Sherry.

aglaia b, 2 months ago

this looks like the preliminary
drawings to a tim burton film. she looks so lovely just standing there, floating in all her glory by the moon!
love all the detailing too! ;-)

Catherine Crim..., 2 months ago

fantastic..poor girl though =0(

AngelArtist, 2 months ago

I really love this picture, but it makes me sad that she is Drowning, so maybe you could draw one just like her, only that she won;t be drowning!

Meg Keamy, 2 months ago

i love it love the style and the colours! great work!

Emjie, 2 months ago

Beautiful dress! It reminds me of those special tea cups that are covered in intricate detail and artwork. Overall the painting is heart breaking and beautiful. I had better keep an eye on your work.

dworsham, about 1 month ago

great colours and a magnificent piece of art

mimmam, about 1 month ago

so funny :D
do you know the movie “Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events” well your style of drawing and the theme reminds me of this movie.
great work!

Paul Compton in reply to mimmam’s comment, about 1 month ago

Thank you mimmam. As indicated on my profile page I’m a huge fan of the Lemony Snicket books so I really appreciate the comment. I didn’t think the movie really captured how fun the books are but it definitely looked fantastic : )

mimmam, about 1 month ago

well i still have to read the books, now i am going to do it for sure. ;-)

i see shades of Edward Gorey in a lot of your work. Have you ever worked on any books?

Steven Novak, 12 days ago

The detail on the girls dress is superb.

Paul Compton in reply to 1073’s comment, 12 days ago

Yes, I love Edward Gorey. I write and illustrate my own one-off books. Thank you so much for commenting : )

Paul Compton in reply to Steven Novak’s comment, 12 days ago

When it comes to girl’s dresses the more flamboyant the better. Thank you Steven.

catblack, 10 days ago

heh heh heh look how miserable she looks, is she a fashion victim?

catblack, 10 days ago

omg, i just nocticed how tiny her waist is! amasing! poor thing…

Paul Compton in reply to catblack’s comment, 10 days ago

Yes, a fashion victim all dressed up and no place to go. Maybe she thinks the umbrella will save her from her fate. Thank you for commenting catblack : )
