Don Draper Throws a Party

I don't think Don Draper would ever throw a party on his own, but if he did, I'd like to think the invitation would look something like this. The Mockingbird and I have been devouring the first season of Mad Men and when I saw this image in an ad in a 1954 Women's Day, I immediately thought of Don Draper, who throughout the first season has either a cigarette or a drink or both in his hand. This piece is for the new small scale gallery room opening at Cactus Gallery in Eagle Rock.

I'm totally hooked on Mad Men also. I've had some women friends say "Oh , i saw how women were treated and i could'nt watch it. Oh, pish posh!!!! i say watch it and enjoy it, We've come along way baby. Got to love the cloths and THE CONSTANT drinking cocktails and the cigs. The kids make the drink HA! Gotta love it!

I know! I wasn't sure I'd like it, but the women have great parts, and Joan definitely has power over most the men in that office....
