Sarah Palin and John McCain - The Morning After

November 10th 2008 22:01
McCain Sarah Palin the Morning After Painting

It's definitely a disrespectful idea, but this painting of the McCain-Palin Straight Talk Express on the morning after the election is a hilarious bit of scathing satire.


It's a painting by Zina Saunders, who posted it up on Drawger, along with several other election themed works.


I can't help but laugh at it - the soothing blues give the painting a sorrowful, remorseful look, but the hints of red on the faces, make it look lusty and depraved. The off-kilter glasses are a nice-touch as well.

This image was found on BoingBoing, which notes that Saunders is releasing a book with a collection of these pieces, called The Party's Over.

Saunders is a talented artist, with a knack for capturing the 'look' of her subjects, without making the image look clumsy or awkward, like many other satirical artists end up doing. Her colours are vivid, reminding me of the full colour pictorials that Mad Magazine might have done, with ruddy noses and textured skin.

Here are some of her finer works:


McCain Fireside Chat


Palin and the Shopping Spree


Maverick John and Calamity Sarah


It would appear that she REALLY doesn't like Sarah Palin.

Your last sentence was a bit of an understatement. 'll keep a look out for the book.

Wicked post!

wow, great images. The only thing that could have made this one better is maybe a visible bottle of Viagra, and one of those controversial "Morning After Pills," on the nightstand to help them both before and after.

thanks for the comments! I saw this picture and knew it had to go up. To be fair, I suppose someone needs to do a Obama/Biden picture, perhaps in rosy, cheerful pink tones?
