“First of all, for me, the determining factor is color. I believe that from any of wool (any fineness and any manufacturer) if you wish, you can create a wonderful toy. Of course, different wool “behaves” differently in the process. With some is easier to work, with some – little harder. In any case, good results can be achieved with any wool. I prefer natural colors or undyed wool in general, which for my kittens and puppies is ideal”.

To achieve realism in the work she studies pictures from different angles, especially the structure, features, etc. In the plans of artist to improve the technique of felting and “give life” to more little animals.
