Jacksonport Craft Cottage Features David Hackett

Door County Lighthouses by David Hackett.

The Jacksonport Craft Cottage, now celebrating 24 years in Door County, is pleased to include the outstanding work of David Hackett into their premier collection of Amish Quilts, fine arts and crafts.

Hackett, a Wisconsin native and Fish Creek resident, is a local watercolorist and pen and ink artist. He majored in fine art at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and enjoyed a career as an art director, graphics designer and illustrator with two ad agencies and his own graphics design studio in Milwaukee.

Door County has been a subject of Hackett’s drawings and paintings for 40 years. Many of his watercolors and pen and inks feature popular Door County scenes and landscapes, from barns and lighthouses to nautical scenes, wildflowers and historic landmarks.

Hackett specializes in commissioned work and has many of his original pieces in private collections. He joins many other artists featured at the Jacksonport Craft Cottage, including Kari Anderson, Audrey Off, Bridget McCabe Matzke, Gail Ring, Richard Delcarson, Sandra Pierre, Pat and Ken Klitzman, and Marion Orlock.

The Jacksonport Craft Cottage, open daily from 9 am – 5 pm, is located on Hwy 57.
