There is a secret garden where all the birds like to gather. It’s next to a gorgeous little house, nestled at the corner of the woods in the hills. Have you been? . .

💚 Delighted to launch the ‘Home Is Where The Heart Is’ collection of enamel pins! 💚 You will find the pretty folly perched on the side of the highest waterfall in the mountains of WhimSicAL LusH, with the best views. The adorable cottage tucked away at the edge of the secret woods, with the most incredible garden. There is a steep glen with the cutest bothy nestled by a lone tree that everyone loves to stop at on their way up the mountain. . . Find the collection now in my #Etsy shop and also from my studio later this month at the @waspsdundee Open Studios weekend on 26th & 27th October. 12-4 both days. . .

Oh go on then - where’s that #artvsartist bandwagon? Lemme jump on too! Why not eh! . . Wasn’t sure what to include so here goes, from top left - 🌿Wee Maggie in her wooden world and with her journal. 🌵 Cacti from my 2020 Calendar 🏡 Rainbow city on the front of the calendar. 🖤 Mandala from September’s pages. 💚 My wee face in front of the biggest mural I’ve done to date (which may be beaten very soon!😉). 🐿 A sneak peek of one of my current projects! Can’t wait to unveil it. 🍄 Kabouter and Cacti Wooden dioramas - brand new in my Etsy! 🌿two of my sculptures from @owbigbuckettrail from @thearchiefoundation had to pop up! #owbbt 🐺 Lil Red and her bestie wolf on her journal and in her wooden world! . . Lots of these treats are in my Etsy shop too - hurrah!! 💚🌿 . . #whimsicallush #illustration #squirrel #oorwullie #penguin #cacti #rainbow #calendar2020 #etsy #journal #bulletjournal #bujo #diorama #gnome #kabouter #mandala #blackandwhite #dundee #artistoninstagram

What was the last book you read? Mine was the Night Circus 🎪 Have you read it too? It inspired this illustration, which now features on one of my new hardback journals. It has also been my best selling print to the USA! 💚🌿 . . Check out my @etsyuk shop (link in bio) if you’d like a limited edition Night Circus Journal 🎪🖤❤️ . . #whimsicallush #nightcircus #erinmorgenstern #novel #book #bookclub #quotes #circus #fantasy #fairytale #lecirquedesrêves #circusofdreams #magic #reveurs #dreamers #etsy #dundee #blackandwhite #etsydundee #journal #sketchbook #notebook #bulletjournal #bujo #bujoinspiration

Have you ever met a kabouter? Last but absolutely not least in the new series of wooden worlds is this cheeky wee dude... but he needs a name! Can you help? . . I always enjoyed stories of old Holland from my Oma (my grandmother). Childhood stories about skating on the canals and exploring. She retold Dutch fairytales and brought with her the Dutch tradition of leaving your shoe out on 5th December to hopefully receive a present from Sinterklaas on St Nicolas’ Day (if you’ve been good) over to Scotland. . . Then there are the stories about the kabouters! My favourite of all! . . Kabouter is the Dutch word for gnome. In Dutch mythology and Dutch folklore, kabouters are tiny men who live underground or are household spirits helping in the home. They are generally shy of humans. The males have long, full beards and wear tall, pointed red hats. . . In the Legend of the Wooden Shoes, an old Dutch folktale, the kabouter teaches the Dutch man how to make wooden shoes. . . My other half met a kabouter one Christmas… here he is! We were hoping that he would be the helpful around the house type, but it turns out he’s more of an outdoors kinda guy and hates doing the housework as much as we do! Ach well, never mind. He’s good fun and seems to have the best stories to tell… just like my Oma! ❤️🍄 . . I’m glad I can share this lil guy with you! He made AJ smile when he met him and me too whilst I was drawing. . . If you’d like to adopt this kabouter then check out the link in my bio... 🍄💚🌿

Do you remember Wee Maggie Penguin? She was one of the stars of @maggiespenguinparade, in her favourite knitted jumper. . . She asked me to make her a journal (to write about all her adventures in and draw pictures of her toy - Fish). I couldn’t say no could I! . . Whilst I was at it I thought it would be lovely to capture her first big iceberg adventure in wood. So Wee Maggie now has her very own 3D wooden world, a cute little diorama, filled with icebergs, a big cosy jumper and toy fish! 🐠 . . If you would like one of Wee Maggie’s beautiful A5 hardback journals or to adopt a wee wooden world just check out the link to my Etsy shop in my bio. 💚🌿 . . #whimsicallush #illustration #penguin #maggiespenguinparade #weemaggie #penguin🐧 #snow #snowflake #diorama #journal #sketchbook #notebook #knittedjumper #etsy #etsyuk #etsyshop #shoplocal #artistoninstagram #dundee #Scotland #bulletjournal #bujo #bujoinspiration

Have you visited the beautiful Victorian glasshouses in the little world of WhimSicAL LusH yet? They are stuffed full of plants and are some of the most beautiful calm places to hide out! 💚🌿🌵 . . There is one particular hothouse that is known as the Cactus Garden, packed with beautiful rare cacti and succulents, all planted in colourful handmade pots decorated with rainbows of pattern. . . What is your favourite cactus or succulent? I’m a big fan of the funky fishbone cactus which features in this garden. I’d love a real one. 💚 🌵 For now though I’ll settle for this cute wooden one next to the tree houseleek in this adorable little wooden garden! . . For more details about where to bagsie one and piccies check out my Etsy shop - link in bio 💚🌿 . . #whimsicallush #illustration #cactus #cacti #succulents #succulentsofinstagram #plantlove #houseplants #wooden #fishbonecactus #treehouseleek #houseleek #diorama #3d #dundee #scotland #etsy #etsydundee

Do you remember this pair of unlikely friends? 🥰 Lil Red and her best friend Wolf explored the forest together, finding hidden treasures like toadstools, flowers and tiny tumbling streams that cascaded through the trees on their journey down the mountain. 🍄 . . These cute characters spring to life from the pages on my drawing table to become a beautiful little 3d wooden world. I’m so pleased with how my new diorama has turned out. Hope you like it too? ❤️🌿 Check out the link in my bio to my @etsyuk shop if you’d like to see more pics and/ or would love one for to keep ... 😘 . . #whimsicallush #illustration #lilred #littleredridinghood #fairytale #grimmsfairytales #storybook #wolf #friends #friendship #woodland #forest #diorama #wooden #collectible #3d #childrensstory #etsydundee #etsy #etsyseller #dundee #scotland

Have you seen the @owbigbuckettrail mega pullout in this week’s @sunday.post? I’m hanging out with First Minister @nicolasturgeon! The interview was a great opportunity to reflect on what has been an epic trail. Still can’t believe we raised almost £1.3M for @thearchiefoundation @echcharity and @gch_charity! . . Gotta shout out again to our insanely brilliant art/artist team, especially my art fam @joannemacfadyen and @fionachance 💛 To the unstoppable @clepington and @wildinart 💛 to the @thearchiefoundation team 💛 @cassjayt and @gailgordon2023 💛 all the sponsors, especially @aimerscoffeeandtea, #pressandjournal & @themalcolmgroup 💛 to DCT team, Scott, Rebecca & Alice 💛 Andy and Oor very own Wullie West for their top forklift skills 💛 Spray Factory for all their help 💛 To the people who gave Oor boys their forever homes and raised so much for the charities 💛 to Edinburgh and Glasgow Children’s hospital charities - it’s been lovely working with you all (especially @asiyah_ax @juliehornprice Roslyn Neely and @biddulphs_bythesea) and to all you brilliant folks who did the trail and made it as epic as it could possibly be!!! You are fab! Loved your pics and your stories. Maybe you’ll see some here? . . #owbbt #oorwulliebigbuckettrail #oorwullie #whimsicallush #archiefoundation #edinburghchildrenshospitalcharity #glasgowchildrenshospitalcharity #dundee #aberdeen #edinburgh #glasgow #inverness #sundaypost

We raised a whopping big £1,293,200 with @owbigbuckettrail from the auction of oor sculptures this week! That’s nearly £1.3M for @thearchiefoundation Tayside, Highland & Grampian, @echcharity and @gch_charity! Team work sure makes the dream work for every child in Scotland!! 🤩 . . Check out this great article on @bbcnews shouting out the highlights! 🌟 . . #owbbt #oorwulliesbigbuckettrail #dundee #aberdeen #edinburgh #glasgow #inverness #archiefoundation #glasgowchildrenshospitalcharity #edinburghchildrenshospitalcharity #fundraising #publicart #art

My @owbigbuckettrail boys have just made an incredible £30,800 for @thearchiefoundation Tayside and Highland! Full O’ Beans made himself a star with the highest bid of both nights with a whopping £16,000!! What an amazing two nights raising an astounding total of £555,700 for The ARCHIE Foundation. To say that I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed is an understatement. . . A huge shout to my super duper art team, without all your incredible artwork there would be no trail. You guys are awesome! 😘 A special shout to my art fam @joannemacfadyen and @fionachance - I would be broken without you superstars at my side! #teamworkmakesthedreamwork 🤩 . . For a whole year Oor Wullie has been a huge part of my life once again. It’s been an honour to have been the art director for the three ARCHIE Foundation cities: #Dundee, #Aberdeen and #Inverness and to work with such a team. . . If my work can make even the tiniest difference to someone’s life it means so much to me. Being able to create something, or enable others to create something, that goes towards helping others is my way of trying to give a little back. Witnessing someone smile when they see my work is something very special and then to not only do that but have that work translate into such things like building the new twin operating theatres at Tayside Children’s Hospital is just incredible. . . It is so important to raise funds for The ARCHIE Foundation as they are providing such a wonderful service to so many children and their families. Most of us know a child who has gone to hospital for an operation, or have been that child themselves. It can be an incredibly anxious time. The ARCHIE Foundation supports patients and their families through the build of new facilities and through enhancing NHS provisions in the hospitals. 💚🌿 Shout & thanks to the #SprayFactory for lacquering all Oor sculptures and to Scott Stewart who made my Peace of Mind design come to life. And my sponsors: @aimerscoffeeandtea #pressandjournal @themalcolmgroup 💛 . . Good luck @echcharity & @gch_charity for your auctions too! Let’s smash the total for this epic trail!! 😘 . . #OWBBT #archiefoundation #oorwulliesbigbuckettrail #whimsicallush

It’s this boy’s turn tonight!!! Eeeeee!!! He’s off to raise (hopefully lots) of money for @thearchiefoundation Highland at our 2nd @owbigbuckettrail auction up at Thainstone Mart! 🤩 . . You can watch it live online from 7:45pm and if you’d like to make a cheeky wee bid online here’s the link 😉 - https://www.oorwullie.com/auctions/ . . #owbbt #artauction #whimsicallush #illustration #oorwullie #inverness #aberdeen #thainstone #wildinart #dcthomson #archiefoundation

I can’t believe it’s the last weekend of @perthshireopenstudios already! #TighFhada is open 10-5 today and tomorrow in sunny Inver by Dunkeld and still filled with lots of new treats - including this gorgeous Lil Red and Wolf hardback journal! . . Swipe to see mum’s gorgeous ceramics and @owbigbuckettrail’s See You Jeemie being no help at all! 😂 . . #perthshireopenstudios #whimsicallush #lilred #wolf #littleredridinghood #storybook #fairytale #journal #sketchbook #notebook #etsy #etsydundee #owbbt #oorwullie #perthshire #inver #dunkeld #bulletjournal #bujo #bujoinspiration

As the sun rises over Slessor Gardens it’s time to say goodbye to our Dundee @owbigbuckettrail boys before their auction for @thearchiefoundation Tayside on Monday! . . Are you coming to the Dundee Farewell over the next few days? Have you got tickets to our auction at @dundeerep? 💛🎭#owbbt oorwullie.com/auctions/ . . #oorwulliesbigbuckettrail #farewellparty #dundee #oorwullie #archiefoundation #wildinart #dcthomson #fundraising #sunrise

Awww would you just look at them! 🥰 The #Inverness @owbigbuckettrail crew, including my boy, are scrubbed and polished and looking the very dab tonight for the @owbigbuckettrail VIP event tonight at @ness_walk 🥰 They are back in @eastgateness tomorrow until Sunday for their farewell gathering before venturing over to Thainestone Mart on Tuesday to find their new homes at auction! I wonder who’s going to adopt my Wull and his Technicolour Dungarees? I hope they will love him as much as I do and that he raises lots for @thearchiefoundation ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 . . #Owbbt #whimsicallush #fundraising #archiefoundation #oorwulliesbigbuckettrail #oorwullie #nesswalkhotel

Well isn’t this just the most fabulous setting to say farewell to oor @owbigbuckettrail @thearchiefoundation Aberdeen boys! Marischal College Quad is spectacular. I didn’t realise that it’s the second largest granite building in the world (so I was told last night) - I love that fact. Double worth the visit to see the building too! 😍 . . The VIP event last night was ace and if it’s anything to go by the farewell Fri - Sun is gonna be epic! 😍 . . The Aberdeen Wulls are joined by their Inverness pals on Tuesday for their auction at Thainstone Mart! Fingers crossed they make lots of money for the kids! . . #owbbt #oorwullie #oorwulliesbigbuckettrail #aberdeen #inverurie #aberdeenshire #seeninthedeen #archiefoundation #dcthomson #wildinart #publicart #fundraising
