Gene Simmons from KISS
geneSimmonsmatchartArtist Mike Bell has found yet another use for match books by turning them into 3-D portraits that are just flat-out cool.

A very creative use of match books!! Little works of 3D art portraits created by Mike Bell. He uses all the parts of the match book: the inside cover as his blank "canvas" and then adds parts of each of the individual match stems to create his mini 3D Masterpieces!
