'My first touch on stone was a human head and I did this at the age of fourteen. The head came out of the idea that came into my minds at a tender age when we used to do mud molding whereby we were making mud vehicles, animals and human heads. So my first ever sculpture on a stone in 1990 was bought by John Deere and this sale inspired me to work on more sculptures. I went on to create ladies figures and Anthony Ponder from America bought the sculptures. Those were happy days because I was at school and I became the richest boy as compared to other students. My classmates were surprised when I bought a stereo radio. Above all, I was the first student to be visited by a white man at school'.
 
All the work carried out on these sculptures is done entirely by hand.
 
This sculpture would enhance any home setting.
 
Shona sculpture is an art form passed down through generations.
