Mail-art by IUOMA member Nikki Soppelsa (Berea, Ohio, USA)

 

April 7, 2011 - Nikki Soppelsa hosted a very successful mail-art call in the latter part of 2010 based on the concept of cats. I recently received this thank you note from her for participating. Here is the link to the "For the Love of Cats" blog where you can see some fantastic work by mail-artists from around the world:

I really appreciate receiving this "Catch of the Day" piece by Nikki and the reference to my "No Cat Stamp Nikki!" submission. I still don't have a cat stamp, however. All I've managed to obtain during the ensuing time period is a roadkill stamp thanks to Snooker the Amazing Mail-Art Dog. Here's the reverse:

 

 

In addition to cat art, Nikki is extensively involved in other areas of mail-art, collage, and some of the larger Fluxus projects. A visit to her blog is always interesting:

Many thanks Nikki for this very wonderful piece celebrating "For the Love of Cats"!
