Artwork Description

Kim Pink 2010 Archibald Entry
Mr Kim Pink is a Teacher at The Hunter School of Performing Art. being a Saxophone player. teacher and a band leader he is always behind the music. I decided to paint him behind the instruments and I also wanted to focus on the mechanical nature of the horns. emphasising the valves and metal. As he posed for the painting and was jamming along to Charlie Bird Parker. I really noticed the Mechanical clanking of valves and wind. So I really wanted to focus on the ‘metal’.

After many different careers ranging from “artificial limb maker” to “Jeweller” Peter finally settled on a family tradition of painting. Since taking up painting full-time in 2000, Peter has had several successful exhibitions and has been featured in numerous newspapers and magazines. In 2006 Peter undertook a Tree-change and packed up his home in Lane Cove - Sydney and headed for the beautiful and inspiring Hunter Valley and constructing the 100 m2 Studio on his 10 acre property in sawyers Gully.
