Brad’s surgery saved his life.
fINKED From the Heart was created to bring awareness to heart health, prevention, legacy, and support within the tattoo industry.

For decades, Brad Fink has watched many people within the tattoo industry suffer from heart attacks, strokes, and heart disease.
After learning about CAC (Coronary Artery Calcium) scoring, Brad underwent testing and discovered an extremely high score, revealing severe and progressive coronary artery disease that could not be treated with stents or medication.
Doctors would need to perform open heart quadruple bypass surgery.
The surgery was scheduled and successfully performed in Florida in May 2026, ultimately saving his life.
Through this experience, fINKED From the Heart was created—an awareness movement within the tattoo industry focused on heart health, prevention, legacy, and support.


Proceeds support the preservation of tattoo history through the Daredevil Tattoo Museum, while raising awareness for coronary artery disease in the tattoo industry.
This isn’t just a launch. This is Brad’s life, his legacy, and the tattoo community that has been his family—dedicating 40 years to his passion and love for the history of tattooing.
While building FINK Caps™, growing our brand, and stepping into national press… we’re also navigating something deeply personal—Brad’s upcoming heart surgery.
We’re launching a limited campaign where every piece sold supports the Daredevil Tattoo Museum—preserving the legacy of tattooing while raising awareness for heart disease.
fINKED From the Heart is a collaborative art movement led by Brad Fink and Dare Devil Michelle, with support from Cameron Fink.
50 tattoo artists are being selected to collaborate on:
heart-inspired tattoo flash
artwork
merchandise
storytelling centered around heart health, survival, tattoo culture, and legacy
The campaign will result in:
a published art book
limited merchandise
a New York art exhibition/event next year

A limited-edition campaign will feature exclusive merchandise, with proceeds directly supporting the preservation of tattoo history through the Daredevil Tattoo Museum—a cultural collection co-founded by Brad that stands as a living archive of the industry’s legacy.
This initiative is about more than awareness.
It's about:

As Cameron & Brad continue to navigate business, life, and health in real time, they invite others to be part of the journey.

To share the message.
And to stand behind heart awareness within the tattoo industry.
To love through uncertainty.
And to leave a legacy—together.

If you or someone you love is navigating heart disease, bypass surgery, recovery, or emotional support through the process, please reach out to Cameron Fink at [email protected].
