The Artists
Two artists. One passion. Every bird that comes through our studio is treated as a work of art — because that's exactly what it is.
Co-founder & Master Taxidermist
Micah has spent years studying the anatomy, behavior, and beauty of game birds — in the field and at the bench. His work is rooted in technical precision: proper feather lay, accurate posture, natural finish. Every bird that comes to him gets the same level of attention, regardless of species.
He built Feathered Arts from a lifelong passion for the craft, drawn specifically to birds for their complexity and color. No shortcuts. No compromises. That standard hasn't changed since the day he started.
Co-founder & Award-winning Artist
Alyssa brings an artist's eye to every bird she works on. Her approach treats each mount as sculpture — capturing not just anatomy, but the energy and personality of the bird in the moment it was taken.
Her competition record speaks for itself — Texas State Champion in 2024, and North American Champion in 2025. At the top level of the sport, competing against the best taxidermists on the continent, her Green-winged Teal took the title.

Our philosophy
"Every bird that comes through this studio deserves to be remembered exactly as it was. That's what we're here for."
