Artist Ken Done, titled Postcard from Sydney 2002. This popular work, titled Postcard from Sydney by the well-known artist Ken Done, reflects the incorporation of Done’s design elements and a repertoire of well-known Sydney icons and motifs in his paintings. He has long favoured gestural brushworks and bright colours for depicting Sydney symbols, and they’re familiar to most Australians, whilst they also appeal to foreign tourists who are familiar with his successful clothing design and his homewares.
