Mary Derkach, known on Instagram as Puntikva, is a multidisciplinary artist from Kharkiv, Ukraine, whose creative world spans pet portraits, needle-felted toys, wool sculptures, polymer clay miniatures, drawings, and illustrations. Her work is a charming blend of realism and whimsy, especially in her signature felted cats that feel both lifelike and delightfully caricatured. Each piece is crafted with remarkable attention to detail, starting with expressive features to carefully designed oversized, curled whiskers that give every cat its own personality.
