Super Stomper @flaxart! Thanks to @artoffre for creating this, one of 50 one-of-a-kind Oakland A’s Stomper mascots you’ll find spread out around #thetown. On display into the fall, all baseball season long, until they are auctioned off for charity. Thanks to the @athletics for bringing Flax in early as a sponsor. #oaklandathletics #oaklandas #stomper #stomperinthetown #mascot #airbrush #airbrushart #oakland #oaklandloveit #flaxart

Start off your week with a blank canvas... or two, or three! These @artalternatives canvases can be found at both our #sanfrancisco and #oakland stores at 50% off the list price. Need advice on stretching your own canvas? We have that too!

I went to @flaxart today and came home with magenta ink. I didn’t go for magenta ink. I didn’t need magenta ink. Correction: I didn’t know just how much I needed magenta ink. 😍
