    OK - So, I sort of feel "Obliged" to actually write a proper review about this place. I really like this place. I don't like the fact that they send me countless / worthless emails every few days about I don't know what. They have some really cool and serious art supplies, which are of no value to me; things that I don't have any business owning - But, they do have a fine selection of those difficult to find "Disposable" writing implements that I love. Store is filled with a lot of cute and cool "Knick Nacks" - But, I wish that they actually had a wider and better selection of stuff. Be careful going up and down the stairs - you could potentially take an unexpected spill and get yourself really injured. I'm serious. I was a bit frightened. Check out process is disgraceful. Management should have a talk with this "Hipster Employees" that they employ. I've visited multiple times and have personally witnessed staff engage customers in nonsense small talk discussion. Than again - Does this establishment actually serve "True New Yorkers" - I don't think so. We're in Brooklyn, NY Guys! - Let's get it going. On more than one occasion, I damn near had to leave my items - because I was going to miss my LIRR Train back to Queens. Anyways - I'm sure this "Posting" is going to generate some "Static" - But, nevertheless - I really do dig this place - Just wish that staff would get on the ball and realize where we are. ;-) I can't give you guys a 4 - until y'all pick up the pace.

    I popped in to Blick to purchase two specific items. I was overwhelmed at first because the store is so large. They have three floors of everything imaginable, but I located what I wanted on the lower level. They were able to accommodate my tiny budget as well. I plan to return.

    There is a lot of paint materials, but other creative mediums like beading there is a lot to be desired.

    I wanted to know if u guys make same day delivery because I really need supplies for tomorrow in my college class so I'm es it deliver today I'm willing to pay what's necessary?

    We can neither guarantee same day with the third-party delivery service we use, nor a specific timeslot for delivery the next day. We can set items aside if you want us to pull them before you arrive, or you can send someone else to pay for them.

    When a pick up was enormous and heavy, Tera actually helped me out the door, down the block, and around the corner.

    We've been coming to Brooklyn Art for over thirty years. Dennis and his team have done excellent…read morework for us including framing very old family documents, many dating from the mid 1800s. The selection of frames is extensive, the service is kind, considerate and gracious. Why go anywhere else?

    As a comedian I almost NEVER give a 5 star review bc they're not as much fun 2 write as those 1 & 2…read morestar disasters - but if I could give Dennis over at Brooklyn Art a 10 star 5 star review I would. Actually if Jesus returned and said, "Hey maybe no full time carpenter this time around, maybe I'll take it easy and just frame art" - then that's who'd Dennis would be bc that's the qualitative level of his work. And what's better is he prices his work like CRAZY EDDIE - his prices are just INSANE - it's almost like getting it done for FREE! I had 5 copies of an 8x10 that I wanted to frame and give as gifts. I live in Red Hook so I went to the closest - "Make a Frame" over on Atlantic Avenue in Cobble hill - who priced me at $174.00 for just one - and no discount on five!!! At those prices maybe they do have Jesus framing, but some how I doubt it. So searched Yelp again and found Brooklyn Art who priced me at $20.00 each!!!! INSANE! Why would I pay $154.00 more - on each one! - over at M.A.F.? I doubt there would've been that much of a qualitative difference noticeable to the eye. Just take a look at the pic I've attached - a beautiful job! I got all 5 done for $100. Great quality and turn around was just as insane. Dennis had done in just a few days. I'm sure Van Gogh would give his left ear, if he still had it, to have his works framed at Brooklyn Art - and you should too, but Dennis only takes cash & credit cards so the good news is you can walk out with both your ears, however if you go to that place on Atlantic avenue it could cost you and arm and leg - HEY OH!

    Honestly, working with Jeff was one of the best shopping/service experiences I've had in my 15…read moreyears in NYC - no exaggeration. I went to Jeff to get a crucifix wall plaque framed. It was handed down to my husband from his parents, who received it from their church in Mexico before they left for the US. It isn't an expensive piece of art but it holds a tremendous amount of value and significance to us. Rather than treating me and the crucifix as a transaction, Jeff took the time to hear the story of the piece and was extremely genuine, helpful, and patient every step of the way - from choosing a frame, matting, and glass to cover the piece. He was very professional, but more importantly, he was very personable and it felt like working with an old friend! I read a recent review on here that mentioned the shop was "completely locked and closed on 11/24." My appointment to see Jeff was that same day and I had no problems at all. Being that there's a pandemic and it's a relatively small shop, you do have to give Jeff a call when you arrive outside, and there's a sign on the building that clearly says that with his number. Personally, I appreciated this, and that Jeff is doing everything to keep his customers safe. Not sure why that would be upsetting to someone - but I'm all about that level of precaution. If I wanted to feel questionable about shopping and risking my health, I'd visit Florida (Floridians... I'm joking!) Long story short, if you're on this Yelp page trying to figure out where to get your pieces framed, rest assured that your journey ends here. Do yourself a favor and reach out to Jeff. He's very pleasant to work with, great at what he does, and good for some laughs. I'll definitely be recommending him to everyone I know!

    Jeff is amazing! He framed two prints and a small quilt for me, and everything turned out…read morebeautifully!
