Welcome to The Tattered Feather! My name is Arlissa Green and I am glad that you decided to check out my page!! Let me tell you a little bit about myself and this page.
I am an artist that loves to use a plethera of different mediums...but I specialize in sculpting with polymer clay. From 2006 to 2015 I ran a successful business called "Arlissa Green Creations." I sold my creations all over the world and had built quite the name and reputation for myself. I even did TV appearances for over two years in South Carolina, showing people how to craft at home. My world was as "perfect" as a "perfect" smooth feather. Then April 23rd, 2015...my world shattered. My brother was killed in a horrific car accident, when the other driver crossed the line and hit him head on. When he died...he took a part of me with him. I tried to pick up the pieces and get back to work....but I didn't have that drive anymore. I wasn't the person I used to be. I was lost. It took over a year to start repairing myself. I missed working with my hands...being creative. Then one day I come across this tattered crow feather in my driveway and I thought....how significant. My world used to be a perfect smooth feather and now, its still there...it is just tattered. That is where the name Tattered Feather come from. Then came the ideas. The more I repaired myself...the more I found myself. The creative juices started to flow and there was no stopping. I knew this was the direction that I wanted to go. I wanted to create things that showed my wild and free spirit. Showcase my Native American roots...a tribal boho, if you will. So this blog was created. You get to follow my journey of reinvention from the start up. So what exactly will you see here on my blog? Obviously...you will get to follow my business as it grows. I will talk about some of the things that inspire me and my style. You will find things that I have created that are available for purchase or order. You will also find some tutorials that will help you at home to make your own creations and some give aways! So a lot of cool stuff!
I hope that you enjoy my page and find it fun and inspirational. Please let me know your feedback or send me a message! I would love to hear from you!!
