Walter Croft is a wood magician. Retired from carpentry, Walter has worked on house framing, maple cabinets, and tiny sculptures (including a mini lobster trap) as well as a plethora of other sculptural projects. He has always worked with wood in some capacity and for the past few decades has committed to pushing its limits by molding one-of-a-kind novel creations including completely wooden basketballs, sports jerseys, beer cans and peanuts. His attention to detail is unrivaled- he wood burns individual dimples into his balls and ensures that all his sculptures mimic the true weight of its live counterpart. Take a look at his collection, (yes, even the laces on his sneakers are wooden), and note that he does not shy away from commissions.
