About this video...
Australian Ken Done's joyously vibrant and colorful canvases are a very direct, personal, and emotional response to his environment. Scenes of the beach, Sydney harbor, and the Great Barrier Reef celebrate the hedonistic, sunny outdoor lifestyle of Australia today. He finds inspiration, too, in Fiji and in Japan, where he enjoys superstar status. Done also brings his distinctive style to designing fashion wear and consumer goods, marketed by his own multimillion dollar company. His wife Judy, colleagues, and friends like jazz musician James Morrison--whose music provides much of the program's sound track-consider the aesthetic value of fine art as opposed to art that is worn and used. Done himself sees no dichotomy in his work; to him it is all creative, all about making beautiful things.
