About the owner
Walter de Groot, the founder, is a second generation designer/craftsman and formally trained as a sculptor. Walter has been involved in the art and restoration business for over 50 years and has produced original works for individuals and corporations as well as blind label production pieces for major retailers and catalog houses. Walter is involved in many other aspects of the art and design world and functions as a craftsman, consultant, and conservator throughout North America for municipal and private estate owners for the restoration of a single artifact to an entire estate.
About 40 years ago Walter was a partner in a successful retail design studio operation that was focused on high mid-level art and decorative accessories that included framed art prints, paintings, sculpture, hand-blown glass, pottery, and many other artsy items with several locations across the east coast.
Now Walter has decided to try it again in Greenport, an artsy little seafaring town on the east end of the north fork of Long Island with the only custom framing and photo printing shop of its kind on Long Island.
