ABOUT BLACK ART DEALER

MORE THAN A BRAND. IT’S A CREATIVE EXPERIENCE.

Black Art Dealer is where ink, art, fashion, and culture come together.

Created by Chicago artist and tattoo artist Greezy 2 Smooth, Black Art Dealer was built as a home for original creativity — from custom tattoos and artwork to statement apparel and unforgettable experiences.

The idea is simple:

Create art. Wear art. Live art.

Everything here is connected by the belief that art shouldn’t be limited to a canvas or gallery wall. Art can live on your skin. It can be printed on what you wear. It can bring people together. And it can tell the story of where you came from and where you’re going.

THE ARTIST

Greezy 2 Smooth is the artist behind Black Art Dealer.

Working from the Black Art Dealer Gallery, a private creative studio on Chicago’s South Side, Greezy creates custom tattoos, original artwork, apparel, and other one-of-one pieces.

The studio is more than a tattoo shop. It’s a creative space built around personal expression, originality, and giving people an experience that feels different from the ordinary.

Every tattoo is treated as a piece of art — created for the person wearing it.

BLACK ON BLACK WEALTH

FROM THE BLOCK TO THE BANK.

Black On Black Wealth is the apparel and lifestyle brand inside the Black Art Dealer world.

The message goes beyond clothing.

Black On Black Wealth represents ownership, ambition, creativity, financial growth, community, and the belief that where you start doesn’t have to determine where you finish.

From the Block to the Bank represents that journey.

Our clothing turns that message into wearable art — pieces designed to start conversations, represent culture, and remind us to think bigger about what wealth can mean for ourselves, our families, and our communities.

TATTOOS

Your body is a canvas.

Black Art Dealer offers private tattoo sessions with Greezy 2 Smooth for clients looking for custom artwork, original concepts, and tattoos created with intention.

From smaller pieces to portraits and large-scale work, the goal is to create something that belongs to you — not something everyone else already has.

Original art. Permanent canvas.

SIP & PAINT

Art should also be fun.

Our Sip & Paint experiences bring people together to paint, socialize, listen to music, and create something of their own.

You don’t have to consider yourself an artist.

Just pull up, grab a canvas, and create.

It’s another part of what Black Art Dealer is about: making art accessible, social, and part of everyday culture.

THE VISION

Black Art Dealer isn’t meant to fit into one category.

It’s a gallery.

It’s a tattoo experience.

It’s fashion.

It’s culture.

It’s a place where an idea can become a tattoo, a painting, a shirt, an event, or something that hasn’t been created yet.

And we’re just getting started.

INK. ART. STYLE. 

ALL IN ONE PLACE.
