Baby Tattooville ’09: Curious Art Sale

Posted by Khoi, October 4, 2009

During each annual Baby Tattooville, artists produce exclusive artwork for an all-one-print that includes each and every piece.Â The original artwork that is used for that print is available first to attendees of the event, then if any pieces are still available, the public will have a chance to buy.Â The order in which those lucky BT-goers receive the opportunity to purchase is based on their ticket number (those who were the first to register get lower numbers).Â It is a wonderful opportunity to skip [...]
