He did his primary education at Resthavean Primary School in Domboshava from 1991 to 1997. At school he joined the art and crafts movement when he was in Grade 3.

He learnt to make wire toys and drawing people, birds and animals. He was interested in drawing people and animals using pencil and paints and started stone carving in 2008 under the tution of Wahsington Musonza.

Washington taught him to work on different types of stones and learnt to make figures, people, birds and abstracts. He uses different types of stones like Springstone, Cobalt, Opal and many more. He also uses some ideas from his late brother Robert Chinofura, who was also an artist.

Sculpture has always been a part of Chelsea Flower Show so it comes as no surprise that there are 55 stands exhibiting all kinds of shapes, sizes and materials made by home-grown and international talent. Sculptors from Africa were especially evident and I could have walked away with a number of the exhibits from ZimSculpt.com, a studio based in Harare, Zimbabwe.
