Kent Winterton has sustained a harmonious relationship with wood for nearly 40 years—Fremont Cottonwood, Peachleaf Willow, Aspen, Box Elder, Piñon Pine—all the wild woods of Utah. Kent’s process is an exercise in patience and listening. He waits for each block or branch to cure before he hears its secrets and puts the woodsong into form. To hold one of Kent’s bowls or Christmas ornaments is to carry music in your hands.
