Grace Kelly.

The reference used was a promotional shot for the 1956 film “High Society”, which was basically her last film, and one of my favorites of all time.
The large rock on her finger in this photo and in the film, is the real engagement ring from Prince Ranier of Monaco.

Emilie Sykes
Beautiful. Looks like a photograph. The details and shading are so subtle that I keep waiting for her to breathe—it’s so lifelike. Well done! Grace Kelly was one of my favorite actresses, as well—I loved her in “Dial M for Murder” and “Rear Window,” both Alfred Hitchcock films. Very nice piece here.
