In a recent interview with The Times, Stanley spoke about his love for painting.

"I started painting about seven years ago when I got divorced," Stanley said of what led to his new career as a painter of abstract art. "My friends got tired of me ranting and screaming, and one of them suggested I take up painting, so I did.

"Pretty much as soon as I put a painting up in the house, people kept asking, 'Who did that?' and 'Where can I get a painting like that?' so I knew I was on to something. It's pretty cool, because I really like that people now are getting to see another side of me, besides just the music," he said.

"When I first started out, I knew that I didn't want to paint a tea cup that looked like a tea cup," he continued. "I do a lot of abstract, because I want people to connect ... and, more importantly, ME to connect with the painting(s) emotionally rather than intellectually. I wanted them to say it made them feel a certain way, rather than say, 'Wow, that tree really looks like a tree.' That's not what I go for when I pick up a brush."
