Maker's bio

My sculptures are born from transformation. Using recycled materials as the starting point, I hand-sculpt each piece with fabric, stone art, and Fabric Hardening Agent, building layers of texture and personality. Every artwork is completely unique, shaped by hand and guided by imagination. Once dried, the sculptures become strong and weather-resistant, allowing them to live both indoors and outdoors. My work is inspired by nature, animals, and storytelling, with a deep respect for sustainability and craftsmanship.

"Had a lovely few hours with Kirsty. She was very patient and encouraging. The facilities at her property are excellent. The course was very informative and despite being a complete novice I came away with a beautiful garden sculpture which I will be proudly showing off. "

MJ reviewed: Mixed Media Canvas Workshop

"I recently attended a canvas workshop at Loveknott Creations, and I can honestly say it exceeded my expectations! From start to finish, the experience was both fun and educational. Kirsty was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the craft, making even the most intricate techniques easy to understand. I appreciated how Kirsty took the time to give personalized feedback and hands-on guidance. The atmosphere was relaxed, but there was a strong focus on learning, which kept me engaged throughout Overall, this course was a fantastic way to spend my time, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who has not yet attended one of Kirsty's courses. Whether you're a beginner or looking to improve your skills, Kirsty will definitely have something to offer for you I can’t wait to sign up for another one!"
