Nastasya Shulyak is a wool artist who creates the most adorable felted creatures you have ever seen. Her wool figurines are fluffy, smiley, and quirky and immediately radiate joy the first time you lay your eyes on them.

Shulyak has been working with wool, using both dry and wet felting techniques for more than a decade now. It all began when she received a set of colored wool as a New Year’s gift from her friends. She decided to give felting a go and immediately liked it.

According to Shulyak, one of the reasons she enjoys expressing her creativity with wool is the endless possibilities that the material offers. Another was the reactions of people when they met her felted creations.

“I saw a childish resounding happiness in an adult holding in his hands what I had done,” Shulyak explains on her website. “Until now, it touches me, causes surprise and peace.”

The artist also shares that the inspiration for her felted creatures comes from the beautiful nature in her current home of Sakartvello, Georgia.

“At every turn, bizarre plants lie in wait for me, which inspire me to create new funny woolen babies,” she adds.

Michaela Younge, a young artist from Cape Town creates amazing wool tableaux, sometimes combined with other materials with interesting textures. She doesn’t make just simple patterns or traceries as her artworks breathe with dreamlike narratives that reflect the way she sees the world. She started doing this only two years ago and she likes experimenting with wool fiber because it seems like the perfect medium for experimentation with certain ideas which couldn’t be expressed otherwise. Her art is created through the process of felting, which is an ancient skill rarely used in modern days.  

Her pieces are mostly some humorous scenes with a lot of nudity and absurdity and she says that is because she has vivid dreams that often play a part in her work. She is mostly attracted by ambiguous figures, those that come up in urban legends, myths or children stories. She thinks that we easily relate to human-like characters and enact social norms, instincts, and play.  

Recently, she exhibited her work in a group show, but she is aiming for a solo exhibition as well, where she could have full freedom to deal with topics that interest her the most.  

This is her amazing art, check it out!
