Grace Kelly - Rear Window

Acrylic on bristol board, 30x40 cm

My second painting of Grace Kelly for my exhibition in Monaco next week, this one from Rear Window. I wanted a still that had a good close up of her face and a background with some depth. Not easy given the limited setting of this film! Lots of long shots, or glamour shots with an uninteresting background. I liked the casual look and colour of the shirt.

very nice! A great likeness for Grace.

Your paintings make me desperately want to see the films again.
