These Felted Animal Photos Will Make You Look Twice!

ADVERTISEMENT

Needle felting artist and teacher Tatiana Kalnins (PhD) creates highly realistic dogs, cats and more from photos. She combines her background in science (MSc in animal behaviour) and art education to create felted miniatures by commission that are more than just a ‘copy’ of a photograph – they have that special spark of personality that makes you look twice! For more images see her Facebook page ‘FeltedPaws by Tatiana’.

    I'm a trained teacher with a background in animal behaviour (MSc), and art teaching (Waikato Society or Arts Art School, Hamilton, New Zealand). As well as my felting I train my blue heeler Sofie in canine freestyle and Rally-Freestyle Elements. I also enjoy drawing and painting animal portraits and collecting books! I've also just finished a PhD in Education for Sustainability which is something I'm very passionate about.

    It’s one thing to be able to make felted animals and another thing to be able to make these masterpieces. These are fricking UNBELIEVABLY GREAT!

    Waaaa I used to do needle felting with my mum when I was about 8 years old, I loved every bit and made a (wonky and haphazard) bunch of farm animals, which I played with daily in a jenga-farmyard. I miss it and this brought back so many memories. You have an incredible talent, I wish you could make miniatures of my thre dogs, I'd give anything for that! Truly stunning, well done, what a gift!
