Rooted in Art is a collaborative venture striving for inclusivity and encouragement of the artist in all of us! We all have a creative spirit rooted within us waiting to be expressed!

Rooted in Art is a welcoming space to help each of us lower our inhibitions and freely express our art as we like. Our goal is to showcase art that embodies this spirit

The Founders:

 Carrie Wine - Artist, naturopath, eternal peacemaker

Carrie explores any medium she can get her hands on! She enjoys the experience of painting as a journey and enjoys this as much as the completed piece.

Carrie studied art at Central Washington University, has taught for Paint Nite, owned a mural painting company,  was commissioned to paint a giant octopus in a commercial kitchen, has continually been an art docent for Sierra’s classes and has worked for a professional faux painting and mural company. Carrie is also a naturopathic doctor and the experience of this artistic venture has been a way to balance her joy of helping others and expressing herself through art.

Tyson Wine - Photographer, storyteller, tree hugger, passion-seeker

Tyson stumbled into a love of photography mainly from an attempt to catalog his adventures and travels.

Tyson’s photography is inspired by a deep love and desire for stewardship of the natural world as well as an appreciation of the beauty humans have created in many built-environments around the world. Our lives are truly blessed by an abundance of beauty that many artists attempt to capture in their work. Living in the Pacific Northwest provides us with the spoils of some of the greatest natural beauty we could hope for. And yet, Tyson still yearns to see more and hopes to share the diversity of Earth’s natural beauty in his work.

Sierra Wine - Painter, author, actress, instigator

Sierra engages in any art and craft within arms reach! She performs in plays, writes passionate stories, and founds and operates small, accessible businesses (she recently started her first not-for-profit face-painting business at a local music festival and expanded her volunteer staff rapidly!)
