📍Las Vegas, USA
My name is Maksim Kazachenko, and I’m a tattoo artist also known as Maks Brand, with more than twelve years of experience. I began my journey in tattooing as a self-taught artist, gradually developing my own artistic mindset, discipline, and technical approach. I am originally from Russia and spent many years living and working in Moscow, where I formed myself as an artist. An important stage of my professional growth later took place in Germany, after which I continued my path in the United States. I currently live and work in the heart of Las Vegas at LasVegasTattoo. I’m inspired by human emotions, inner states, and the visual depth of an image. I am especially drawn to black & grey realism, portrait work, and Chicano style.
In my work, I’m a perfectionist and place great importance on cleanliness, realism, and depth. I often complete medium-sized projects over two or three sessions, aiming for maximum quality and long-term results. Working in Las Vegas, I interact daily with clients from all over the world, frequently welcoming people from France, England, Germany, and Australia, as well as from across the United States. I am highly attentive to my clients’ physical and emotional state and strive to minimize discomfort during the process. Today, I am an officially certified mentor and teach tattoo art. In March, May, and July, I will serve as a judge at tattoo conventions. Previously, I performed tattoo work live on Russian federal television, gave interviews as a tattoo artist, and participated in televised features involving well-known artists.
