Kirsten is comfortable in many mediums but prefers the tedious and challenging process of traditional clay sculpting. She creates sculptures in clay, then molds, casts and paints the pieces. Majority of her work is inspired by breathtaking colors and patterns exhibited in nature feet below the surface of water only attainable by scuba diving or free diving.
