We love trawling through blogs and quite by accident we stumbled across her amazing work!
Personally I have quite a thing for mobiles so her beautiful work is right up my street! Jikits is her hand made company and we think she is a very crafty and cleaver gal! Not only is she a crafty super star but she's also an illustrator, a mum and from the look of things a very busy maker too!
geometric shapes mobile...we love these so much!!! |
Kim graduated from NYU where she studied printmaking and sculpture. Now living in Los Angeles with her husband who is a musician and their three young children.
Cacti mobile... |
Howdy partner! |
With a love for bright colors and bold shapes, paintings and collages, crochet and embroidery, Picasso, Warhol, the 50's and 60's her work is both magical and a little bit of what I imagine to be the contents of her dreams and imagination! I quite love the Warhol/Velvet Underground reference in her mobile pictured below...can you spot it?
Custom made mobiles can be ordered via Kim's Etsy shop. |

*Kim's work reminds us of hazy Californian dream sequences filled with swirling neon lights and heavily incensed summer nights. We're sipping on a large Jack & Coke while skipping down Hollywood Boulevard with The GTO's... and we are so free that we feel like we're flying!*
