Looking forward to giving a wee talking tour of our @discoverywalkdundee walk plaques with Kelly this afternoon as part of @dundeeuni’s Festival Of The Future! It’s really lovely to keep celebrating and remembering those wonderful gifts that the talented people of Dundee gave to the world! . . I’m bringing along some of the original illustrations that went on to be cast in bronze and are now part of the pavements of Slessor Gardens right on the doorstep of @vadundee 💚🌿 . . #discoverywalkdundee #dundee #whimsicallush #illustration #dundeehistory #history #dundonian

The enamel cactus pins are finally here! 💚🌵After many requests I’ve brought back the original Bunny Ear cactus in its striped pot... in new colour way of #coral and #sunshineyellow 🌞 . . The Hedgehog Cactus with her gorgeous #pink flowers is back too this time in a lovely #teal pot with #fushiapink #polkadots 🌵💕 . .

These bad boys can be found now in my #Etsy shop (link in bio) and the Bunny Ear 🌵 Pins in the striped pots are also in @teagreenevents pop up at @dockstreetstudios in #Dundee 💚🌵 . . #whimsicallush #enamelpin #cacti #wearableart #bunnyearcactus #hedgehogcactus #houseplant #cactuslove #🌵#etsydundee

So last night was rather special! It was the launch of @owbigbuckettrail 🖤 The trail will see Oor Wullie sculptures in Dundee, Aberdeen, Inverness, Glasgow and Edinburgh (where the glitzy launch was last night in @assembly_rooms_edinburgh with special guest @nicolasturgeon!) . . Oor Wullie will be raising money again for @thearchiefoundation and also @gch_charity and @echcharity helping children across Scotland! What a dude! . . Oor Wullie has also been on adventures already and headed straight for @vadundee when he was in #Dundee the other day! . . Artists: Archie’s Brave Wee Boy: @rhiannon.moore.kitchimama (concept: Angela Nisbet) Gold: c/o @wildinart Orginal: Peter Davidson (Oor Wullie illustrator) . . So keep your eyes peeled for lots more shenanigans in 2019! ☺️ . . #owbbt #oorwullie #oorwulliebuckettrail #oorwulliebigbuckettrail #scotland #edinburgh #glasgow #aberdeen #inverness #fundraising #childrenshospital #publicart #whimsicallush #archiefoundation #edinburghchildrenshospitalcharity #glasgowchildrenshospitalcharity

Today has been all about #ReFormationDundee ☺️ Today has been all about painting the cobblestones of Reform Street with colour and pattern, inspirational words, designs and images to ‘create a vibrant and uplifting atmosphere for the wider community, with a focus on mental health.’ . . I have loved painting today with lots of you dropping in to help me complete our ‘public space’ piece. My youngest helpers this afternoon were just 4 & 5 years old! Hasn’t everyone done a fantastic job! #teamwork . . ‘RE-FORMATION is a community art project celebrating and promoting young people’s ideas, skills and achievements as part of Scottish Governments’s #YearOfYoungPeople2018. It is a large scale city wide partnership project, co-designed and delivered by young people from school and community groups across Dundee.’ . . ‘The art installation is an ambitious and exciting display, demonstrating young people’s perspective of youth culture. . . 10 local community groups, have been involved in this wonderful project, which has been organised by @ellelcj and her brilliant team at @cornerdundee ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💕 . . This was just day 1... pop down tomorrow and check out stage two! Sunday’s public painting space will be hosted by @creature_emporium so if you fancy painting a cobble too, and missed out helping me today, he’ll be creating the second public panel at the top end of the project! . . #Dundee #YOYP2018 #youthculture #inspiration #equality #diversity #feelings #ambition #inclusion #respect #dreambig #streetart #dundeestreetart

This time last night we were at @vadundee auctioning our @maggiespenguinparade penguins! Here are just a few pics. What an amazing night it was - We made our target of £540,000, which will keep @maggiesdundee running for another year. Dundee is just brilliant! 🧡🐧 . . Charles (Check him out on the front page of today’s Courier ☺️), Maggie and Fleur and Wee Maggie did me proud and my little penguin family raised £23,000 for Maggie’s! 😍🐧 I think my face in some of these pics says it all - it was a proper emotional rollercoaster! . .

Wee Maggie is off on her last adventure with me to the @vadundee for tomorrow’s @maggiespenguinparade auction!! She was very excited to get to go play in the museum tonight! . . I told her that she’s not allowed to play with the Cartier Valkyrie diamond tiara... but I can’t promise that she won’t! 💎🐧 . . Soooo excited to be at the auction tomorrow night... who’s joining us? Did you know you can watch us live-streamed from @maggiespenguinparade on Facebook and on the Courier’s website too! We’d love you to join us! . . #maggiespenguins #maggiespenguinparade #vandadundee #vadundee #dundee #whimsicallush #weemaggie #penguin #signaturesigns

Time to put the paintbrushes down and say goodbye to our penguins! The @maggiespenguinparade has been an epic adventure, with such a wonderful team! Teamwork really does make the dream work (to coin a cheesy phrase). . . In particular, a big shout to my penguin art wife @joannemacfadyen 💚and all of our brilliant artists, who have outdone themselves with the artwork! Thanks so much for working so hard and being so crazy talented. Very proud of our waddle! #GoTeamArt (wish I could tag us all!) . . The gates to #SlessorGardens open at 10am so that you can all come along and help us say goodbye to the parade before they pop next door to the @vadundee to be auctioned and raise lots of money to keep @maggiesdundee open and running for another year. . . Our target is £540,000 but let’s hope our penguins smash it and raise double that! Aim high right! Let’s go for the big £1M... do you think we can do it? . . #maggiespenguinparade #maggiespenguins #dundee #maggiesdundee #cancercare #whimsicallush #wildinart #publicart #art #fundraising

Good luck @ladymacdeath_ 💚🌿 #Repost @ladymacdeath_ with @get_repost ・・・ I'm lucky enough to be friends with the super talented artist and hooman @whimsicallush. After winning the Scotland heat for Patron Perfectionist, I went to her with a brain full of ill thought out ideas, that I was hoping she could translate into... anything. I wanted a visualisation of the relationship I'm trying to create between Jalisco and Dundee. . . @whimsicallush you are a miracle worker. I have no idea how you perfectly created what I was trying to say. Thank you so so so much. . . Can't wait to tell everyone about it on Monday! . . . #patronperfectionist #patronperfectionist2018 #whimsicallush #dundee #visitdundee #dundeemarmalade #patron #jalisco #birdandbear #draffens #draffensofdundee
