Professional Artist & Speaker

Masha Schwartz is a professional artist born in Ukraine in 1982 and currently residing in the USA. She’s is the founder of the vibrant, “Surreabstract” style which combines the surreal and abstract elements in the same space. In this style the artist questions the visual clarity and lucidity during the “critical paranoia” state coined by Dali, while also using music to inspire the creative process of developing an art piece. The Virtual Reality (VR) offers a unique opportunity in exploration of the surreal worlds depicted in her paintings. Masha’s series of magnificent works pay tribute to the masters, including Dali, Gockel and Kandinsky. She studied at Towson University, MD from 2000 till 2004 focusing on graphic arts and marketing, and later completed Post Graduate studies at Phoenix University and Doctoral studies at UMUC developing her business expertise. Upon completion of her doctoral degree in international business in 2015 Masha opened her own business, Vivid Connect, which helps entrepreneurs, creatives and small businesses achieve success worldwide. In 1997, Masha began publicly displaying her works and over the past 20+ years she has been commissioned for murals and varied art pieces. She has held several solo exhibitions, and has been included in numerous group and collective shows. Masha’s work has been acquired and included in interesting private and corporate collections, throughout the world. As a versatile and future oriented artist Masha aspires to influence the business world with her unique visions and plans to one day open a traveling art museum where children could gain inspiration working side by side with professional artists. In the coming years Masha will go on a living museum tour with her works across the USA and abroad.
