Looking At These Tattoos,

the style looks slightly familiar,


 because they all are circular, or use circles in their design,

 Turkish tattoo artist Havva Karabudak

 and when I looked at her Instagram site,

 I realised why,

 in the U.S. she is known as Eva krbdk,

 and we have featured her work before under that name, back in August 2016,

 the artist, who splits her times between residencies in Brooklyn and Los Angeles, has been honing her craft for almost nine years, 

 previously, Eva worked as an art teacher and muralist; she got into tattooing through a friend who worked in the industry,

 Eva inks interpretations of famed paintings by Matisse, van Gogh, and Klimt, as well as Hokusai’s The Great Wave woodblock print and Maurice Sendak’s illustrations in Where The Wild Things Are,

the artist also specializes in water scenes and evening skies, so no shortage of ideas for a tattoo, if you want one.
