at home.

- Oh,
look, it gets me down sometimes. I'd be tougher
than I really am if I told you that it didn't
hurt sometimes.
Ken
Done > Art
Criticism, Strength
- If
I make a painting, it should be seen for what
it's set out to do too. A lot of the things that
I do, it's not all art. Some of it's design, some
of it's illustration, some of it's graphics, some
of it's concept, some of it's business and some
of it, hopefully, is art.

- Art
shouldn't be something that you go quietly into
an art gallery and dip your forelock and say 'I
have to be very quiet, I'm in here amongst the
art.' It's here, art's everywhere. It's how you
use your eyes. It's about the enjoyment of visual
things. And it's certainly not for any one group
of people.
Ken
Done > Enjoy,

Gallery
- I've
always thought that there shouldn't be any limit
to the things that are well designed. And I think
that people who consider that art should only
be kept for art galleries and doesn't have a role
in public life, I think that's too narrow.

- Wherever
you are in the world, there's always something
about the Australian light. There's something
about the sharpness of it, something about the
clarity of it, something about the colours of
Australia. And hopefully, something optimistic
about Australian painting too.
Ken
Done > Australia,

- I'm
very fortunate to live right on Sydney Harbour.
So, I mean, every time I look out the studio window,
there's Sydney. So, clearly, it's a most significant
thing for me to see.
