-----PAUL STANLEY-----
From the New York high school of music and art to a rock icon with kiss, Paul Stanley has now found success in another form of art.
We are delighted to have him with us this morning to show us his incredible new art work.
For more than 30 years, Paul Stanley has reigned supreme as one of the single-most recognizable front-men in the history of rock and roll. He's the principal songwriter, driving force and unwavering voice of KISS.
A visionary and trendsetter since the early 1970s, Stanley's passion for both the musical and visual arts has perhaps been the key to the astonishing ongoing world phenomenon known as KISS.
His artistic and visual input has been seen in his designs of KISS album covers, stages and apparel. As an art major and graduate of the prestigious high school of Music and Art in NYC, Stanley has returned to his passion for painting, to share with you the deep emotions his art conveys.
Stanley creates portraits and abstracts that are emotionally charged compositions. He aims to maximize the direct, physical impact of his paintings through scale, texture, color and simplicity of images.
In a few short years of exhibiting, Stanley's works have been acquired by numerous art collectors and he has been commissioned to create large works to be displayed by an international corporate entity.
Stanley's tremendous success as a painter has translated in to well over $2 million in art sales for 2007.
