Kent’s paintings have won numerous awards and are represented in private
collections throughout the United States. His attention to detail,
coupled with his inherent interest in the
Western motif and American art, has led to his involvement in many
related Western architectural design projects and murals. Born in
Gunnison, Utah in 1944, Kent Butler developed a natural interest in
nature as well as the American West. He can’t remember a time when he
wasn’t drawing anything and everything that caught his eye, during his
formative years. Kent began his formal art training at age 19 at the
University of Utah. He then moved to Los Angeles, where he attended the
Los Angeles Art Center College of Design. Kent left the Los Angeles area
in 1982, and now lives in Ojai, California, a setting of great natural
beauty, which Kent feels is the perfect place to focus and sharpen his
talent, and to pursue an already highly successful career in the art
world. Kent is known for his unique and expressive use of color, as well
as his black and white drawings. His wide range of subjects and his
variety in style is well known in contemporary circles. Kent is
available for commission portrait subjects including family, friends,
and pets.
