Kenneth — 28 years of experience in lettering and black & grey realism

A great tattoo starts with a good idea and an artist who knows how to bring it to life. Kenneth brings 28 years of tattooing experience to the table. At Bunker Tattoo in Breda, he specialises in lettering and black & grey realism, with fine line and mandala tattoos also among his strengths. From flowing script to bold blackletter, delicate lines to realistic shading, Kenneth knows how to give a design character. Originally from Eindhoven, he’s also Roger’s brother. Some things you simply have to work around.

Lettering tattoos: from script to blackletter

Whether it’s a name, a personal message or words that mean something to you, lettering deserves careful thought. Spelling is a good start. Letterforms, proportions and placement matter just as much. Kenneth works across lettering styles, including script and blackletter. Whether you want something understated or lettering with a stronger presence, he can help you explore a design that suits your idea and its placement. For those drawn to a more delicate look, he also works in fine line tattooing.

Black & grey realism and mandala tattoos

Black & grey realism uses depth, contrast and detail to give an image its character. Working with black ink and grey tones, Kenneth helps translate your ideas into a tattoo with dimension and presence. Mandala tattoos are another of his strengths, combining symmetry, repeating patterns and precise linework. You don’t need a fully finished design before getting in touch. A clear idea or a few reference images can give you a useful starting point.

Dad, dancer and Dutch champion at folding people

Outside the studio, Kenneth is married to Megan and dad to Elvis, Travis and Chloe. Their household also includes Loe the dog and two guinea pigs. Several hours of focused tattooing probably counts as quiet time. He’s passionate about contemporary dance and is a Dutch Brazilian jiu-jitsu champion. So he can move beautifully across a room and make sure you can’t. The jiu-jitsu has left him with cauliflower ears. He also loves cauliflower soup. Apparently, he believes in committing to a theme.
