Who is Swallow Tail?

Swallow Tail Creations was created and solely ran by Sarah, an Appalachian folk artist in the North Georgia Mountains. After getting an art degree from the University of North Georgia and spending a few years in the restaurant business, Sarah found the universe yelling at her that it was time to follow the art path for real. Now she works full time as an artist, making beautiful creations that are waiting to find the perfect home!

What is Swallow Tail?

The name Swallow Tail is inspired by the symbol for persisting and renewing of life, the ouroboros. Within the ouroboros is a swallowtail butterfly, another symbol for the cycles of life and transformation. The art created through Swallow Tail Creations is aimed to help renew the inner spirit within everyone who owns it, so the ouroboros and swallowtail are the perfect symbols to encompass that mission.

Why Swallow Tail?

Life is messy. It is chaotic, random, but persisting. Art is one of humanity's strongest ways of preserving the beauty of a universe that is constantly changing. Swallow Tail Creations is one of many small art businesses that commit their existence to the creation of art and the emphasis of what makes this universe so wonderfully weird. When you buy from Swallow Tail Creations (and other small businesses!) you are investing in a world where art, kindness, and community are priority.
