Iconic artist Ken Done reveals his connection to Taylor Swift
Iconic Australian artist Ken Done has revealed how one of his paintings ended up in the hands of pop star Taylor Swift.
He joined Ray Hadley in-studio for a chat about his life and career as one of Australia’s most well-known artists.
Ken tells Ray how Australian musician Vance Joy asked him to produce a painting to celebrate the end of Taylor Swift’s 1989 world tour.
“I didn’t really know who Taylor Swift was, I had to say.
“It was a kind of secret thing, I had to not tell anybody I was doing it.”
Ken agreed in exchange for a $25,000 donation to UNICEF, which Vance Joy happily agreed to.
