Ugh!! What a waste of a quilt! Why would someone do that. The flower part is pretty she should have left it at just that. I mean i guess we all have creative license to do what we want but I would not hang that in my house and have to explain what it is.

uhhhhh, yeah, that's something I'd want in my house---NOT.
I agree with Scrap, what a waste of fabric and ability. I never knew there were urinals like that, learn something everyday I guess. I was amazed the first time I saw a "Mommy and Me" stall in a truck stop but that's a good practical idea. Flowered urinals is just silly.
In case you haven'e seen a "Mommy and Me" it's a large stall with a regular toilet, a small toilet with a flower shaped ring, a changing table and a wall safety seat for babies. It allows a mother of young children to keep them with her for safety.

I think it's pretty - it's an artist interpretation of a practical item that he makes to earn his living. Everyone's idea of pretty is different! That's what makes it "art" - beauty in the eye of the beholder and all that stuff!

The urinals are very interesting. Because I grow orchids, the photos of them have been around. They are a fortune, but are an "art piece". They are certainly a conversation starter and attract attention. Good art is typically controversial and memorable. I leave it up to you to decide, but if I'm ever in the market for a urinal and have an extra 10 grand around I'd go with an orchid one;>
