Fabulous Flushers



One of those sweet and rare assignments that immediately commands nothing more than a toilet and a rainbow. This was for a Talk of the Town blurb in the April issue of 417 Magazine. The headline was "Fabulous Flushers" and the paragraph highlighted some really elaborate and over-the-top bathrooms that were recently featured in some of the Branson, MO showrooms. Look ma, I got paid to draw a toilet :) Life is good.
