Wow! Now this is Art!

Talented designer Takashi Murakami, who is possibly best know as the current fabo creative-head for Louis Vuitton’s ultra popular handbags, is quite the Pop Art/Anime artist. Perhaps one of his most eye-popping pieces might have to be entitled, “My Lonesome Cowboy,” which features a very manga-ish looking character squirting, well, having quite an…uh…explosion of joy.  

Despite its pretty erotic nature, or maybe because of it, this Lonesome Cowboy is for sale at famed Sotheby’s Auction House, with a current asking price being a mere 4 million dollars. So run out and pick it up today!

Check out an image of the happy fella (beware, so not NSFW) here:
