The Rex Art Blog is Live!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Hello World!<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to Rex Art&#8217;s official blog!\u00a0 I know it&#8217;s a bit overdue, but hey, we are busy here fulfilling all your creative supply needs!\u00a0 I admit we have been a bit remiss in our duties to keep up with the 21st century technology, and the blogosphere explosion.\u00a0 However, since we are exclusively a web provider of a vast selection of creative materials we felt that it was important to implement a blog for all our fans, customers, and general population that are interested in what we do around here.<\/p>\n<p>On our blog you can expect to see posts on all sorts of topics of interest.\u00a0 We will post information on products, new items,\u00a0 stories about our customers, current specials, and a host of other oddities that might be somewhat applicable.\u00a0 We hope that you will also contribute with your feedback about topics that you feel others in the community would find useful as well.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly enough, probably one of the most requested topics we often get asked about is our office dog, Lucy.\u00a0 As a bit of background information, yes, we do have a dog in the office, and she roams mostly freely, especially when everyone is eating their lunch.\u00a0\u00a0 Katrina and Lisa, spotted her on the camera at the back door of our office in January 2007.\u00a0 We invited her in for cookie, and she gave us the sad eyes!\u00a0 We searched and searched for signs that her owner was looking for her, and we took her to the vet to see if she had a chip, but it was all to no avail.\u00a0 After about one month of looking for her owners we pretty much came to the conclusion that she was abandoned.\u00a0 Honestly, after keeping her for a couple days it would have been hard to return her to her owners.\u00a0 She is a real blessing, and needless to say, we have had a dog ever since!\u00a0\u00a0 So, if you call in and hear a doggie in the background that is our Lucy.\u00a0 Sometimes Marshall, will also bring in his Lab, Bianca, or BB as we often refer to her.\u00a0 Who knows maybe you will hear two doggies!\u00a0\u00a0 Here are a couple of updated pictures for all the Lucy fans out there:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21\" title=\"lucy_11\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_11.jpg\" alt=\"Lucy at home at the Rex Art Office\" width=\"500\" height=\"331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_11.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_11-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lucy at home at the Rex Art Office<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_22\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-22\" title=\"lucy_21\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_21.jpg\" alt=\"Lucy showing her skills - Hi Five for Katrina!\" width=\"500\" height=\"604\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_21.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_21-248x300.jpg 248w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-22\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lucy showing her skills - Hi Five for Katrina!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23\" title=\"lucy_31\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_31.jpg\" alt=\"Lucy and her aerial hi-five!\" width=\"500\" height=\"752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_31.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.rexart.com\/art-supplies-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/lucy_31-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lucy and her aerial hi-five!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We sincerely hope that you will find our blog useful, and join the conversation by posting your comments and thoughts.\u00a0 We will do our best to respond in a reasonable time.\u00a0 Thank you for checking out our blog!\u00a0 Till next time&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello World!
