I love working with nature-inspired themes — from realistic animal portraits to flowers, plants, fruits, vegetables, insects etc. Anything that grows, moves, or tells a story deeply inspires me.

My tattoos are mostly realistic and done in color, but I also enjoy working in black and grey or using single-color fusion when it fits the design. My favorite style is color realism, often blended with elements of neotraditional or ornamental tattooing.

Whether you're looking for a meaningful botanical tattoo, a custom realism color piece, or something playful — like a panda on a rocket or a raccoon on a unicycle with a silly hat — I’m always excited to create something unique and personal for you.

That really depends — no two tattoos (or people) are the same. The price depends on your idea, the placement, size, level of detail, and how your skin responds during the session. Every artist works differently, and so does every client.

To give you an idea for what my tattoo rates are:

• A full design on one side of the forearm (inside or outside), depending on complexity, usually takes around 4–6 hours — often completed in one session.

• An upper outer arm, again depending on design and detail, typically takes 1.5 to 2 full-day sessions (around 7–12 hours total).

• A medium sized tattoo (let's say handsize), again depending on design and details, will take me between 2,5 - 4 hours

My hourly rate is €180 per hour for tattooing, and I don’t charge for design preparation or breaks. If you’d like a more specific estimate, feel free to fill out the tattoo request form — I’ll be happy to take a look.

At the end of your tattoo session, I kindly ask you to pay in cash. Thanks so much for your understanding and support!

If you feel that my style aligns with your idea, the first step is to fill out the tattoo request form on my website. You’ll find it under “Booking” — just share your concept, the desired placement, and any important details.

I personally review each request and will get back to you within a week to let you know if I’m the right artist for your project. If so, we’ll discuss the next steps — and, if needed, schedule a video call or in-studio chat.

From there, we’ll plan your appointment and begin the creative journey together.

It depends on when you would like to book and whether my agenda is full. At the moment (beginning of October), my books are open for January – April 2026. I am taking on both new projects and follow-up sessions for ongoing work. Once my agenda is full, I will close bookings and announce this via my website and social media.

When my agenda opens and you are interested, you can fill in the tattoo request form. If your idea is a good fit and I accept your request, I will get in touch to schedule a video call or an appointment at the shop. During this meeting we’ll go over your idea in detail, I’ll answer any remaining questions, and together we’ll set your actual tattoo date(s) within the open period.

Yes, sometimes I do — but it really depends on the situation. My style isn’t always the best match for cover-ups, and I need enough creative freedom to make something beautiful and lasting. It also depends on the existing tattoo: how deep the ink is, how dark it is, and whether there’s any scarring.

As for fix-ups: If you’re looking for someone to simply recolor or “fill in” an old tattoo while keeping the design exactly the same, I’m probably not the right artist for you. But if you’re looking for a thoughtful refresh or creative retouch, I may be able to help.

If you think I am the right artist, please fill in the tattoo request form and include clear daylight photos of the tattoo you’d like to cover or fix/retouch. I’ll take a look and let you know if I can help. If I can’t help you myself, I’ll try to refer you to another artist who can.

Yes, absolutely — I’ve tattooed many different skin types, including areas with scars and stretch marks. But whether it’s possible depends on your skin and the specific area.

For scars, it’s important that they are fully healed — meaning at least 1 year old and no longer sensitive. With stretch marks, it also depends on their depth, texture, and location.

A tattoo can often blend or distract from scars and striae, but keep in mind that these areas aren’t as smooth as regular skin. This means that texture may still be slightly visible, or catch the light differently, even after tattooing.

If you’re curious whether your skin is suitable, feel free to send me clear photos via the booking form. I’ll be happy to take a look and give you honest feedback.

Yes, I do take on smaller projects from time to time — usually pieces that take between 1 and 4 hours. It really depends on the idea and whether it fits my style as an artist.

I also enjoy doing micro realism when it suits the design.

If you feel I might be the right artist for your smaller tattoo, feel free to fill in the booking form and share your idea. I’ll take a look and let you know if it’s something I can take on.

When I started tattooing in 2017, I didn’t want to use my real name. I was looking for something a bit playful, unique, and personal — ideally something animal-related, since I’ve always been a huge animal lover.

I was thinking about the many birds visiting our garden at the time — mostly tit birds. I hadn’t seen a titmouse before (which is a small bird with a cute tuft), so I looked it up. The English name for the kuifmees made me laugh: Titmouse. Most people don’t know what a titmouse is, but they tend to remember the name — because it sounds kind of funny and quirky. Tit. Mouse. Titmouse. 😄

So I went with it — because the bird is adorable, and the name is fun and lighthearted.

And then the best part happened: The very next day, I opened the curtains and saw — for the first time ever — actual titmice eating in our garden. They stayed the entire summer. That moment felt like a little sign from the universe that I had chosen the right name.

In general, I don’t tattoo clients under the age of 18. In very rare cases, I may consider it — but only with written consent from a parent or legal guardian, and only if the idea feels truly meaningful and appropriate.

I do not tattoo visible areas (such as hands, neck, or face) on anyone under 18 — no exceptions.

If you’re under 18 and thinking about a tattoo, feel free to reach out with your idea and your reason behind it. I’ll let you know honestly if I feel comfortable taking it on.

Some people believe that tattoos need to be touched up every few years — but that’s not necessarily true. The most important factor in tattoo longevity is contrast: whether it’s done through bold lines, deep blacks, or the right balance in color work (as in realism). A well-designed tattoo, with strong contrast, will age gracefully.

That said, how you care for your tattoo matters just as much. Excessive sun exposure can damage the skin and break down pigment over time — especially in color tattoos. Using sun protection and taking care of your skin helps preserve the vibrancy.

Certain lighter tones may fade a bit faster, which is why it’s so important that the artist understands how to apply color properly. Personally, I don’t do pastel or “softly colored” tattoos, and I never add “just a little bit of color” — it’s either full color or none.

Why? Because faint colors often fade out quickly, leaving the tattoo looking washed out. The same goes for black & grey tattoos: if the initial contrast is too low, the design won’t hold its strength over time.

Contrast is key.

As you can see in my portfolio, this principle is central to my work — so that your tattoo stays beautiful for years to come.
