Painting Title: Ken Done’s Aboriginal SISTA IV
Ken Done’s Aboriginal SISTA IV Didactic
This series of works is FUN! And are a total embellishment of my more serious contemporary Aboriginal arts practice. They are also a nod to the 80’s legend Ken Done, who I adore. His colour, and vast documentation of Sydney (my Country) are such a gift to anyone who calls this place home.
They are colourful, playful and humourous. The pattens in this work are a rough reference to the typography of the landscape surrounding the hospital.
These works are meant to be daydreamed to. May your dreams be big and yours days here pass you by swiftly. Many blessings.
