We want to make sure you can find us!

We're at 341 Hanks Hill Road
Travel south on rt. 195 about 1 mile past the UCONN campus to East Road (across from the Mansfield fire station). Turn left on East Rd and go about 3/4 mile. The gallery is the little red barn where East Road makes a sharp left and becomes Hanks Hill Road.

We're looking forward to seeing you there!

More Images From Red Oak Studio


Here are some more images from my trip to the southwest.  They are available in matted pieces of different sizes and also available in handmade cards.

This is a sculpture located in Taos, New Mexico.  The sculpture is done by R.C. Gorman a famous sculptor and painter from Taos.  The title of this piece is Winona and I believe it is a piece that personifies the southwest.  For me, when I look at the piece I see peace and nobility.

Here is a look at our gallery on the inside.   But don't wait too long to actually come inside and see the wonderful products that we and our guest artists have waiting for you.  We have a wonderful range of prices to help you with your holiday shopping.

Platter from Feats of Clay


Here is one of Lisa's new pieces.  As you can see her work is organic and romantic at the same time.

Good Gourds from Chris Gooding


Chris has been with us as a guest artist for the past few years.  We keep having her back because she has developed a following at our gallery.  Here is one of her lamps.  Her muse for this piece is Robert Rivera a famous gourd artist from Santa Fe, New Mexico.  Her products are in demand so don't wait too long.
