Born on 19 August 1979, in Nyanga, Zimbabwe, Lovemore started carving when he was in form three. But it was not until 1999 that he began to carve seriously. It is then that he started to carve heads, and soon after that became a specialist in the field. Verdite, Butter Jade, and other Serpentine Stones are the materials he chooses. He has previously been chosen to travel to Angola and South Africa to teach his stone carving. He says he is inspired by History.
