About Eve!
Tattoo Artist
Eve opened her shop in February 2023 after working several years apprenticing in an established tattoo shop and tattooing locally in the York area of Pennsylvania. Her style preferences are black and white realism and dark themed detailed pieces; however, she also enjoys color work involving highly saturated vibrant colors, larger pieces or anything out of the norm. Custom tattoos to fit spooky themes that allow creative freedom and stories are a favorite! Horror and Paranormal based tattoos will take priority.
Eve retired from a 21 year career with the Baltimore County Police Department in Maryland as a detective (HQ) and certified forensic artist.
Eve's art training is highly specialized and consists of skeletal facial reconstructions and drawing postmortem images of the deceased in order to gain an identification. She also drew composite sketches of suspects described by victims and witnesses of crime. Eve's art training has been throughout the country to include the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, conferences held yearly by the International Association for Identification, courses held by the Michigan State Police and in specialized courses at several Universities in Florida, Oklahoma and Arizona just to name a few. Eve continues to lecture about Forensic Art at morgues, Towson University's anthropology and criminal justice students and to local area High School (seniors) science programs.
Eve continues her forensic services by working part-time with NaMUS (National Missing and Unidentified Persons System) supplying postmortem images and facial reconstructions to morgues and police departments throughout the country. She is currently assigned several cold cases and active cases each week while maintaining the tattoo shop. In addition, Eve's art has been utilized for historical preservations after human remains have been recovered by anthropologists in mass graves and has been featured in several documentaries. Eve is transitioning into helping the living by using her talents to tattoo so she can identify human remains faster (kidding!)
Interests
Eve is a working mom and devoted wife with the love to travel the world. Hobbies besides drawing include reading, ghost hunting, anything horror related, playing with every animal that crosses her path and hanging with her husband (retired police), son (high school) and her best friend (forensic anthropologist).
Eve's goal is to change the view of tattoo shops into a vibrant open art studio someone can go to to gain confidence of themselves and their personal image, whether hiding surgical scars, birthmarks, blemishes or adding color, designs & memorials that they can be proud of.

Tattoo Artwork
Eve generally draws your design the night before or the morning of, just due to high demands of tattoos and being the sole artist at the shop. She does not send images to you via email beforehand. She also applies her own twist to images provided (unless it's a logo or specific request).
