Another Repair. Things went more smoothly this time, this clay is better suited to sealing cracks than sculpting. Bossons, Legend Products Chalkware. King Henry VIII. #Bossons #Chalkware #LegendProducts #KingHenrryVIII

Bossons Chalkware, titled “Syrian”. My aunt gifted me 20 of these busts. As a child her wall of heads terrified & excited me.
Many are chipped. Not perfect repair, the air dry clay shrinks considerably but with some wood glue and acrylic paint it will do for displaying them. #Bossons #Chalkware

The Bossons Glacier shimmers under a deep blue sky- ice groans in the distance and somewhere beneath it all a quiet stream trickles like breath. #chamonix #glaciersounds #bossons #glacierdebossons
