Needle Felting Artist Creates Pets and Wild Animals From Wool

Irina Artwin is a Hrodna, Belarus-based needle felting artist who loves creating animal and bird sculptures from wool. She describes herself as an artist who breathes life into clouds of wool.

“How could rare and endangered animals be brought back to life with the help of just a needle?” Artwin told Bored Panda. “My felting needle is my magic wand. I make various animal and bird sculptures from wool. I felt wild jaguars, cute pandas, severe dragons, dogs and even hens. Most of them are created for private collections.”

You can find Artwins’s work on Instagram, where she goes by the name artwinfelting or in her Etsy store where she sells all of her animal creations.
