Deep In The Whispering Woods | Kerry Darlington

‘The Tree is always changing its branches and leaves, making it an ever-changing and unpredictable place’ ~ Enid Blyton

Deep in the Whispering Wood, Kerry Darlington welcomes collectors back into the enchanting world of The Magic Faraway Tree—a place where every branch tells a story and every detail feels richly alive. Familiar faces emerge from the foliage, from Moon-Face’s knowing expression to Silky, the Saucepan Man, and the ever-watchful Angry Pixie, each bringing a sense of nostalgia that has captivated imaginations for generations.

Among the winding branches, Joe, Beth, Frannie, and Rick are caught mid-adventure. Ladders lean between hidden pathways, and tiny doors open into secret worlds waiting to be explored. Above, the Land of Toys drifts into view in a joyful burst of colour—carousel horses, painted rooftops, and playful shapes floating gently through the clouds. Below, Kerry’s own woodland characters carry on quietly, adding a sense of calm beneath the magic unfolding above.

Every piece is individually crafted with a luminous resin finish and intricate raised detailing, creating depth and texture throughout the scene. Subtle silver leaf reflects the light as you move around the artwork, producing a soft, shifting glow that evolves with its surroundings.
