Artist paints world leaders on the loo

Italian artist Cristina Guggeri has created a series of paintings of world leaders using the loo, called “The Daily Duty”.

How classic is this! 

The reaction to Guggeri's work has been mixed - with some obviously thinking it is disrespectful and rudely crass - and others finding it pretty darn funny. 

I must say as I scrolled through I had a grin on my face because, let's be honest, no matter who or what you are we have a few things in common. 

The colour of our blood (unless you are the queen) (she is my best in the series - why 'her' thighs humour me so much I'm not sure) and the fact that, by George, we all use the loo; yes - even the Queen! 

I love this concept of humanizing and making us all intrinsically the same on many levels. 

What do you think?
