About me

Welcome to my webshop, I’m so happy you’re here!

My name is Femke, and I’m a Dutch tattoo artist, born in the city of Leiden and currently based in The Netherlands (Amsterdam and Rotterdam) and Spain (Barcelona). My journey into art began at a young age, I always love drawing and creating, and over time, it grew into something much more.

About two years ago, I picked up tattooing. I taught myself how to tattoo and started by practicing on my brave and supportive friends. With time, patience, and a lot of passion, I began to develop my own style. It has a lot of texture, contrast, and filled with tiny dots. I now mostly tattoo using a machine, though I also enjoy stick and poke from time to time.

What I love most is creating themed flash designs that tell little stories. I’m especially drawn to themes inspired by the ocean and historical tales, things that carry a sense of wonder, mystery, or nostalgia. One of my favorite types of designs features kids in costumes. These sweet, textured little creatures that feel both playful and tender. These characters really capture the heart of what I love to make, something playful but serious.

Outside of tattooing, I studied Environmental Science and have always had a deep love for nature and the world around us. I take a lot of inspiration from that.

When I’m not drawing or tattooing, I enjoy exploring craft beers, going for bike rides, and traveling whenever I get the chance. I love being on the move and often visit different places so I can meet new people and tattoo in new studios. It really keeps me inspired and connected.

This webshop is a little extension of my world, a place where you can find my artwork, prints, and exclusive merch inspired by my tattoo designs. Everything you see here is made with love, care, and a bit of that magic I try to bring into every piece.

 

Thanks so much for being here and supporting my creative journey!

Lots of love,

Femke
