Kevin Hutson

Kevin Hutson turns exquisite wooden bowls and vases with the touch of the oriental in the design. He says “Having turned conventional shapes for a period of time I found the need to advance towards more aesthetic shapes. I now blend subtle tones of colour to emphasis the variety of grain found in wood. Each piece is finished by a process of a mixture of natural oils such as Danish Oil and Liquid Paraffin over a period of three days.”.

Kevin hails from Brighton but now lives in Haywards Heath. He served a five year apprenticeship in Carpentry and Joinery at The Brighton Technical College successfully passing both City and Guilds and the Advanced City and Guilds examinations. After 16 years’ practical experience he progressed as a freelance draughtsman in architecturally designed joinery manufacture. He found this experience inspired his designing for the more creative forms; he is completely self-taught in this type of creativity.
