About

Tara Rook grew up outside of Albany, New York, and spent her youth immersed in the arts and meditation. Her creative path has been a vibrant journey of producing music, making visual art, curating a shop, traveling the world, living in Maine, and becoming a guide for spirituality. She is now based in Brooklyn, New York, working as an interdisciplinary artist specializing in pen illustrations, graphic design, producing electronic music, and DJing under the moniker Just Milk.

In addition to her artistic work, Tara is an active energy worker, meditation and movement teacher, and spiritual guide, helping others feel safe, grounded, and present in their body, mind, and heart.

Tara is the founder and creative director of Love Land, a creative wellness company launching in fall 2025. Love Land is “a place to create a mindful life” a virtual space where art, music, and mindfulness converge. Through thoughtfully designed experiences, products, and classes, Tara’s vision for Love Land is to inspire peace, self-expression, and collective healing. It is a home for daily rituals, conscious living, and community connection rooted in beauty and intention.

Mission & Vision

Tara currently owns and operates Tara Rook Studios, LLC, established in 2022.

The studio’s mission is to explore the arts as a source of guidance. It serves as the umbrella for her roles as an intuitive meditation guide, visual artist, music producer (Just Milk), shop curator, and facilitator of unique classes and workshops that integrate creative expression with mindfulness.

Her artwork reflects themes of nature, anatomy and physiology, spirituality, flora and fauna, and the inspiration she finds through traveling. Each piece carries a positive, loving, and healing essence.

Select art prints and products are available through her online shop.

Through Just Milk, she produces electronic music layered with organic synths, beats, and vocals to create accessible yet meaningful tracks.

Her long-term vision is to build both a physical and virtual center for creative wellness, interweaving the practices of art, music, movement, and meditation to help others access peace and inner alignment.

Meditation & Spirituality

A devoted meditation practitioner and lifelong Buddhist, Tara is committed to helping others awaken their own spiritual path through mindfulness-based practices. Rooted in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, her daily practice has cultivated deep compassion and empathy for all beings.

She continues to study diverse philosophies and spiritual traditions, enriching her personal practice and teaching with an open, inclusive heart.
