Klay Sculpture is the creative identity of Kay, a self-taught sculptor working predominantly in clay. Kay's work is deeply inspired by nature, with a particular focus on capturing the beauty and unique character of animals. Whether sculpting domestic, farm, or wild animals, Kay's meticulous attention to detail brings each subject to life, evoking the spirit of the natural world.
Growing up in the countryside, Kay's love for animals and nature was nurtured by a childhood spent riding horses and caring for creatures on her family's smallholding. Although art was always a passion - culminating in an A-level in the subject - life took her on a different career path. It wasn't until about ten years ago, after taking an art class, that Kay rediscovered her love for sculpture. This sparked a decade-long journey of honing her skills, refining her technique, and developing a personal process that merges her lifelong connection to animals with her artistic vision.
Now working from her home studio in Porton, near Salisbury, Kay is committed to pursuing her passion full-time, striving to create pieces that resonate with art lovers and animal enthusiasts alike.
