Shari Pedowitz creates sinuous art that entices you to linger. Since 1987, the self-taught artist has created over 1,400 works dancing with audacious color, mesmerizing texture, and a signature shimmer that steals your gaze when you least expect it.
Her paintings have graced the Tisch Galleries at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and reside in permanent collections, including the University of Delaware. Balancing sensuality with optimism, her work uses glitter to create indulgent, tactile surfaces that thrum with heat.
What began on canvas now extends into luxury textiles, fashion, and home décor that caress your environment with velvety flair. Every transformative piece engages you directly through original paintings, custom commissions, and glossy everyday luxuries.
Art you can wear. Art you can live in. Art that makes your walls blush.

Poetry
Canvas is only part of her work. As an award-winning poet, Shari writes with a razor-witted mischief backed by attitude and sparkle. Her rebellious verse is the sharp, literary spine behind her visual art. Brush or pen, it's the same fearless spirit at play.
