It's been a minute! Don't hate! Summer/ Fall wrap up

We've been really busy over here at Urban Folk Art®/ Brooklyn Tattoo®. Time for an update. As the holiday season is upon us, we've been thinking about how great our summer was, and how cool the winter will be. 

In September, we had an art show with original UFA® Members Mahoney Perkins and Jason Mitchell. They have been faxing each other drawings for the past 17 years, and they showed a couple hundred of those as well as some new work from each of them.

We jumped in to the Enamel Pin game with some cool throwback images to t-shirts we printed 20 some odd years ago, tributes to the good old 40 ounce. Get em here.

UFA® Founder Adam Suerte got to go back to school and teach his friend and fellow alumni Forrest Curl's  freshman foundation design class at his alma mater.

Brooklyn tattoo was nominated "best tattoo shop outside of Brooklyn" in the Village Voice's readers poll in their 60th anniversary diamond issue. 

Urban Folk Art® Music released it's first  split 7inch with Miscegenator and Chimpgrinder, both bands have original members of Urban Folk Art® in it. Buy the record here

Adam Suerte Original Artwork Under $400

Adam Suerte, founder of Urban Folk Art® studios, Co owner of Brooklyn Tattoo has put up a section on the online store listing some original artwork all under $400. If you've ever wanted any original suerte, but haven't been able to saddle up to one of his usual large works, he's set up some smaller stuff cheaper than usual, to make room in his studio for new works. Everything is one of a kind, and he'll update as newer works are created. Great for the holiday season as well.
