Illustrations. Ellie Foreman-Peck
.
I average about 0% awesome when it comes to dinner party conversations that get political. I find them absolutely terrifying (the conversations, not the parties, love the parties!) mostly because I have nothing to add since I’d rather spend my time oogling superfab illustrations and graphic designers on my reader than schlepp through internet eyesores (ie 24 hour news urls) so I can figure out let alone give a fuck who’s senate seat is in jeopardy and what Sarah Palin is gonna do about it.

But (there’s always room for a but),

I’m going all downtown Gordon Brown for Ellie Foreman-Peck’s 102% awesome poly-strations. Don’t get me wrong, I will still lose the color in my face and close up shop once our small talk gets hot and D.C. heavy, but maybe next time we’ll be at Ellie’s house where one can transition from talking to drawing should the need arise.

McWorld!
