Our History of Showing Your Artwork:

The artwork that graced our FLAX art & design catalogs for over 20 years (1984 – 2007) was creative and intriguing. Our call to artists enlisted work from art students, major advertising firms, freelance artists and casual art enthusiasts. In fact, our catalog cover contests were often prepared as a class assignment. Take a peek at some of our favorites over the years.
