We
will also be selling items that won't be moving with me. This includes
many archival papers, printmaking items, frames, collected and traded
artworks and crafts, ceramics, glassware and Japanese items, and countless
things I cannot think of today. The outbuilding/ studio is being dismantled,
so many presses, cabinets, drafting tables and other furnishings will
be offered. If you have a specific item you are looking for, feel free
to call or email. There will probably be a final barn auction held at
the end of April, date to be determined.
If
you are interested in purchasing this unique rural property, give me a
call. The 5,600 sq ft contemporary home is rustic, 25+ yrs old and has
4.5 baths, 5 bedrooms, fireplace and a lower level efficiency apartment.
The outbuilding is 5,000 sq ft, including a state-of-the-art workshop
and 5" reinforced concrete floor throughout. The buildings sit on
25 wild acres on a dead-end road, filled with wildlife and bordered by
good neighbors. Located in Rock County, Edgerton School District, 10 miles
from I-90, 130 miles from Chicago, 30 miles from Madison.

On
June 8th, 2007, my dear husband, Dennis McWilliams, died unexpectedly.
He was my best friend for more than thirty years, as well as my master
printer and partner in Hunt-Wulkowicz Graphics. We worked together daily
with few exceptions, and were married for twenty six years. In 1989 we
moved from Chicago to this beautiful country location in rural Wisconsin,
to raise our daughter, Haven. We have missed him greatly, and I will never
forget the important place he held in my heart, and the important contribution
he made to my artwork as well.
But
now I must move into the future with a positive attitude and new enthusiasm.
I will be relocating from the country into an historic 1869 cream brick
beauty at 220 S. Academy Street in Janesville. My mother, Jan Hunt, will
move up from Chicago, and we will create art and music together, for the
first time since I left home. Once we are settled here, we intend to establish
a once-a-month social event, art and music oriented, and hope to see many
of you at one of our lively gatherings.
To
bid farewell to this amazing home and print studio, and to celebrate the
move to the new building, I will hold a final Open House event that will
include both locations. My artwork will be on display in both places,
but we will also present a Memorial Exhibition of Dennis McWilliams' artwork
at the Williams Road address, which held his unrealized dreams for a Midwest
Print Center and Workshop. This will be the last chance to visit this
small piece of printmaking history.
This
spring the Smithsonian National Gallery of Art has accepted my etching,
An Early Autumn, into its collection. I am incredibly honored.
Thank you, Janet and Thomas Sutter, and David Prosser, for making this
possible.
