Artist Makes Hyper-Realistic Wool Animal Sculptures Through Needle Felting (46 New Pics)

Needle felting is a craft that sounds way more complex than it actually is—and most of the time, it also gets super cute results. What’s not to love? Russian artist Anna Yastrezhembovskaya, also known on her social media as 'yast.anna,' is a good example of that! Anna creates incredible and very realistic (not to mention very cute) miniatures and sometimes life-sized copies of various animals. Her most popular wool-felted animals, surprisingly enough, tend to be birds and bats, and we have previously featured some of Yastrezhembovskaya’s works a couple of years ago.

To find out a little bit more about the artist and her work, Bored Panda reached out to Anna.

“I have always loved to do something with my own hands. Since I was a child, I was already making toys from different materials. After I got older and finished school, I entered medical college and worked as a laboratory assistant for some time. After the birth of two of my children, I accidentally saw felted toys on the internet. I decided to give it a try and have been doing it ever since. I'm finally happy and I'm doing what I always wanted to do.”
