My name is Eve and I’m a Dutch tattooer based in Ibiza, specializing in traditional, ceremonial and medical tattoos. I’ll be guesting the Netherlands on a regular basis.
I’m a traditionally trained all round tattooer, which means my focus is creating a tattoo that fits the body and will last a lifetime.
Every tattoo is sacred. In my ceremonial tattoo session, I will work with multiple forces (think of the moon, the elements and spirits) and I’ll use my knowledge of channeling, cultural symbolism and the spiritual background in tattooing.
These tattoos are suitable for reconstructing or enhancing the areola after recovering from breast surgery. It is also suitable for people who suffer from pigment spots or scar tissue.
My full name is Evelien Hordijk aka Eve born and raised in Vlaardingen, the Netherlands. My educational background is mainly in healthcare, for which I completed various secondary vocational courses and almost finished my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW). While studying, I started working in mental healthcare, and then transitioned to working full-time in that field. It was always a profession I loved doing until the cutbacks became more severe and limited the quality of care I was able to provide. This situation gave me the space to reconsider what else I loved doing, which is how in 2014 I decided to learn the craft of tattooing through a traditional apprenticeship.
Tattooing is not just a job, it's a lifestyle. In my opinion there are many similarities between healthcare and tattooing. The care and time I put into a tattoo and the 1:1 sessions with a person are full of the same love and attention I provided in my mental healthcare days.
Over the years I've done several conventions and worked in different shops while traveling, which has always challenged me to keep improving my skills. I strive to give the best of myself and keep seeking inspiration in my surroundings.
Love by Eve
