No one paints Sydney Harbour like Ken Done. His joyous, brightly coloured depictions of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge have decorated doona covers and duffel bags since the 1980s, and remain loved by a new generation of Australiana appreciators.
Now aged 84, Done is still painting. He has a home studio on Rosherville Beach in Sydney, where he dutifully arrives for work most mornings and blasts music to get into the zone. Here, the legendary artist tells us about the implements that help him with his creative practice and shares the story of an artwork he deeply misses.
