The Artist Studio was originally built for sculptor, Jo Davidson, using timbers from one of Marland’s first oil well derricks. It became the home of Mr. and Mrs. Marland when they could no longer afford to live in the mansion.

On the south exterior wall of the Artist Studio is an unusual vertical sundial. Originally, a peg in the sun’s mouth cast the shadow that told the time.

The Gallery attached to the Studio is the home of the Bryant Baker Studio, sculptor of the Pioneer Woman Statue. This wing originally housed the twelve original models of the Pioneer Woman Statue, which are now on display at Woolaroc, near Bartlesville.

The John Duncan Forsyth Room is located in the Artist Studio building. A tribute to the Master Architect of the Marland Estate, the room includes original drawings of the Artist Studio and a collection of photographs of the mansion interior in 1930.
