Aimee Kibbe is the middle generation of a three generation gold country
family. She makes (and collects) extraordinary things, including the
handmade structures that she inhabits on her off grid property outside
of town. Her art can be seen all over town in various locations and in
the homes of local folk. She is adept at embroidery, as is her own
mother, and makes exquisite dolls, but to reduce the scope of her
creativity to one medium would be fool-hearty. Everything she touches
becomes a work of art, including her person which is often adorned in
such a way that she is beautifully distracting. You can't buy her work
in any store. If she is in a good mood and has a rapport with you, she
might consider a trade, but more often than not, she will randomly
grace someone with one of her creations.
Aimee also collects small animals and created a daughter named Tiger every bit as beautiful, creative, and fiery as her mama. If you spend any time in Nevada City, you'll see one or both of them around town....
Ummmm..... WOW!..........My jaw dropped and I was actually rendered
speechless for at least a minute when I saw this amazing home of Aimee
Kibbe and daughter Tiger Lilie on
GoldDustCollectives webpage. I really want to live here!!!
That
kitchen is an absolute dream. It just looks so cosy and warm and really
inspiring. I bet so many beautiful healthy meals are prepared in there!
I can imagine it smelling of yummy homemade soup, freshly made bread
and spice. Heaven!
