Art one suffers for — bric-a-brac likewise? (6)

I believe the answer is:

tattoo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'art one suffers' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'bric-a-brac likewise?' is the wordplay.
'bric-a-brac' becomes 'tat' (I've seen this before).
'likewise?' becomes 'too' (too can mean likewise or as well).
'tat'+'too'='TATTOO'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tattoo that I've seen before include "Drum signal; skin marking" , "one has to beat" , "Indelible decoration on skin" , "Edinburgh show" , "image on one's skin" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
