This is one of my favourite details taken from Arthur's crown. 👑 The butter began to get tacky and stick to my skin making my hands so cold! I don't know if I've told you before but the fridge we work in is between 8 and 10 degrees 🥶 #buttersculpture #Letsgototheex #KingArthur

Because I can't be at the CNE, I thought that I would share some photos of some of my favourite details from last year's sculpture that I haven't shared before.🍴🧂🍿 Stay tuned to see some of the magic that made up this piece #buttersculpture #letsgototheex

Detail shot of Merlin in clay. Currently sculpting Arthur. He is giving me a hard time at the minute. Just gotta keep pushing through! #SundayFunday #sculpting #sculpture #Merlin #BBC #QuarantineLife

Ok. I'm so making a mess over here. Learning how to Tweet properly 😂 Just thanked myself for a retweet. The "thank you" was really for @MissingMerlin. Then I apologized, while replying to myself....again.😅 I'm going to get better at this, right? 🤣

Thanks @N_Crombach for the great hand portrait taken while working on the scarf! #sculpture #sculpting #sculptor #Merlin #character #figure #portraitart
First and last butter sculptures! 2013 and 2019. So grateful to work at the CNE as it has been an opportunity to lear how to sculpt. Butter is THE best medium. #butter #pokemon #Vaporeon #Merlin #Arthurian
