I am a native Chicagoan who now calls Sauk Centre home. As a landscape artist working in acrylic, oil, and color pencil, I like to bring people to a specific place and time. My husband and I are avid travelers and photographers. These photos serve as references for much of my work. When possible, I take time for plein aire painting or drawing. My award-winning work has been displayed in galleries in Minnesota and Illinois and I have been featured in Color Pencil Magazine. My art is owned by collectors across the country. I serve on the board for the 510 Art Lab in Sauk Centre and Artify Sauk Centre, and am a member of the Alexandria Art Guild and Outdoor Painters of Minnesota.

As an artist it is hard to pin down one type of style I love. My art changes with my moods and my inspiration with my dreams and stories. Some days I’m anxious and some days happy. You can see it in the colors of the photograph, and the strokes of my brush on the canvas. Growing up I was inspired by the creativity and amazing imagination of Salvador Dali, and the beautiful colors and strokes of Georgia O’Keeffe. I am amazed at the talent and colors of street art and love amazing portrait style of Annie Leibovitz. So here I am smack dab in the middle of all that, trying to get my mangled emotions and own creative process down as it comes to me. When I have a spare moment!

I draw from my skills, old and new, as a macramé artist. I was introduced to the fiber art in the mid-1970’s in HomeEc class, and rediscovered my love for it 6 years ago. Last year I added 3D Sculpture to the things I love to create. I enjoy weaving and knotting fibers to create stunning and intricate designs, blending creativity with skill to craft unique and beautiful pieces of décor and wearable art.

I'm Daniel Smith, a potter living in St. Joseph, MN. I make pottery with local clay and ash glazes at the Saint John's Pottery. The studio's model of working with deep respect for our local and global environments inspired me to pursue a life in clay, and to continue in a tradition of making functional wood fired pottery for everyday use.

Tara Root
Sauk Centre, MN
Jewelry & Painting
Growing up in Pasadena, California, my parents helped me further my art at a very young age. While in grade school, my mom would take me to an Asian art center to take classes. In high school, I majored in art and was given an art scholarship in 1972. I continued to study art at Pasadena City College and then worked for the art department, mostly for the photography department. The last schooling I had was at LA Trade Tech, taking fashion design and illustration.
I started making belts and hats in Los Angeles and then started my own jewelry line. Next I opened a tea room/vintage clothing boutique where I sold my jewelry. I’m still having fun making jewelry and doing fabric art. Other passions of mine are watercolor and plein aire painting.

We are a small family team working together to see what we can create. Patrick first designs our flags on his computer then makes the program for our CNC to cut them our. He runs the machine changing the bits when needed for the design and makes sure the machine is following his plan. Once finished they are hand sanded, hand stained and colored then 4 coats of shellac is applied. Once they are dried we put a hanger on the back and stand offs.
