The British Invasion collection contains the works, Ruby Tuesday, The Zosoist, Bolero, Magic Bus, Lawdy Mama and Revolution. These pieces depict guitars played by the early '60's rock groups that descended upon the hearts, minds and radios across America. "It was a favorite time for me personally. My musical palette was developing and vulnerable to the intoxicating hooks, licks and grooves of the time", states Thatcher. "Creating this collection is my way of reviving the memories created by the music of that generation, my generation." These works and more can be view on-line at www.strumgallery.com.
About the artist:
Paul's style has been coined as "Bewusst Verzerrt", consciously distorted. He constructs a new image by distorting an existing one, leaving a similar but edgy result. Inspired by Peter Max's unfettered use of color and bold lines and Warhol's selection of hackneyed subject matter, Paul sets out to explore the invisible. Combining vibrant colors and bold lines with distortion and texture, his manipulations encourage viewers to decipher and ultimately to complete his compositions.
