About The Red Cockerill Gallery
The Red Cockerill Gallery has been at its location in Austell since 1975, but it doesn't seem so long to Ann and Bill Cockerill. After she had graduated from college, Ann wanted to open a gallery where she could display and sell her artwork and with Bill's talent as a carpenter it just made sense to also offer custom framing services to the community. The shop is nestled in the quiet community of Austell, known for its antique stores and the famous Wallace's Barbeque restaurant. Take a break from the busy malls and hectic highways, and join Ann & Bill in Austell the next time you have something special to frame. They offer a complete line of custom framing featuring accentuated with creative expertise. Conservation framing is their specialty!
Other companies may offer similar services, but our services are the best, and come with a personal touch.

The Lost Mountain Store is a familiar landmark in West Cobb County. For many years it was a general store where you could buy everything from sweet potatoes and corn to kerosene and an ice cold Coke! Most folks stayed around awhile to chat with Newt and his dog Wheeler. These days the store serves as a location for a regional bank, but in Ann's painting it is preserved in its glory days.
