PAUL STANLEY On CNBC's 'The Big Idea With Donny Deutsch'; Video Available

July 21, 2008

KISS guitarist/vocalist Paul Stanley was a guest on today's (Monday, July 21) edition of CNBC's "The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch". The show highlighted Paul's immense success in the music and art worlds. Watch a two-and-a-half-minute clip below.

In a recent interview with ABC7.com's George Pennacchio, Paul Stanley stated about his art, "What I'm trying to do with my art is connect with people emotionally. I think one of the beauties of abstract art is probably that it appeals to you emotionally, rather than intellectually. I'd rather get a smile or somebody going, 'Whoa!' than somebody going, 'Hmmm.'"

"I love color and somebody was describing my work and said to me, 'You know, you're fearless with color,' and I said, 'What's there to be afraid of?' You know — it's color!"

"You don't need a degree to know what good art is. Good art is what you love. When you go into a restaurant, you don't have to have someone tell you what bad food is. When you spit it out, guess what? It's bad,"

Paul's original works start at about $14,000, but his giclee reproductions begin at about a thousand dollars.
