Edition: 1/25
Reference: BB-C-136-01-2026

Original work created entirely by hand in a mixed-media technique (acrylic and Posca marker) on an authentic 1-dollar US bill (USD).

In this composition, Bugs Bunny appears dressed in an elegant suit, raising a toast in a simple gesture yet rich in symbolism. The discreet smile, the knowing gaze, and the confident posture convey a vision of success free from any ostentation. Here, wealth does not impose itself — it is savored.

By repurposing a banknote, the universal symbol of value and power, Toons turns money into a stylized celebration scene. The gesture of the toast becomes a visual signature: a way to mark the present moment, blending cartoon humor with contemporary sophistication.

GOLDEN TOAST, COOL CLASS evokes effortless elegance, where luxury becomes a natural attitude rather than an outward status. A pop-chic, luminous and resolutely contemporary work, where success is expressed through style, ease, and confidence.
