Sunday Sketches - Whitney Houston Dress

For Sophia's Sunday Sketches, I saw a photo of this eye-catching Whitney Houston dress up for auction and thought I could paint it for you in this acrylic ACEO. Please stop by the other participants to see what they sketched this Sunday!

  9. Lenora, it's been valued at $1000 but they think it will go for more than that.

    Kay apparently she wore this dress in 'The Bodyguard'

    Oceangirl, I think I will address that question in a future post! Stay tuned.

    Thanks for stopping by everyone!

  15. what a great dress - I agree with other posters , it portrays simplicity and grace - the best things in fashion! (I never actually got to see that movie - weird - i was a huge Whitney fan in the late 80's)
