3-D Gandalf lenticular magnet- Lord of the Rings! 2001

Years ago, I had a flood in my beach apartment that left me with many damaged comics- I began to make art out of them, as I couldn't bear to part with them.

All hand-cut glass (cut by me, with many scars to show for it!) and framed in copper, these are all original panels, when I know which comic it was, I identify it..but sometimes I have no clue. People have been sending me their damaged comics to transform.

I collect 3D imagery, love it all since childhood, the winky pictures. I got a set of these Kellogg's promo cards from Germany when Lord of the Rings films came out. 2001!! 25 years ago, wow. I have more that I will make magnets out of when I find them again...

If you search the internet for the hashtag #glasscandybar you can see many of my past pieces.

 I  got a lovely note from JJ Abrams when I sent him a few of my pieces: 

They will come in a box (if the piece fits! otherwise, a very sturdy bubblewrap job) All backings are different things, recycled packaging etc, like so:

I also have mirrors and soon matchbooks in this style, go look around!
