Shari is fluent in American English; her ability to speak/read Spanish is a bit rusty; she can read some French, Hebrew and Italian; and has been known to have conversations in Japanese using a phrasebook. Requests written in a language other than English may take a few days for a response, but we will do our best to answer you in your first language by using Google Translate, which is used throughout our website and communications as necessary. We use Google Translate for all non-American English versions of our website, so please let us know if you have questions/spot an error or if you'd like us to add a version in your first language; some features/phrases may not translate, but we'll always present the most welcoming experience that we can for you.

purchase/commission paintings?
To purchase a painting, photograph or digital art:
Use the Add to Cart icon above each art description for each painting, photograph, or digital art and follow the check-out procedure (the watermark will not appear on the work of art itself; colors may be slightly different on the work of art than how they appear onscreen). We only accept credit card and PayPal payments through our website checkout system; no exceptions.
To commission a painting, photograph or digital art:
Shari will create the commissioned art at her home studio (no additional charge) or in front of an audience for your event.
Pricing for commissioned art starts at US$5400.00 for the smallest size of 5 x 7 inches. If you need a larger size, a different shape or a series, Shari will work with you on the price.
Shari only creates original, one-of-a-kind works of art in her glittertastic, vibrant abstract style. She does not copy or recreate works of art.
Use the Contact form with dominant color choice, color(s) you do not want, sentimental objects like wedding glass that are to be included and whether you want a purely abstract painting or an abstract landscape with such elements as water, trees, flowers and birds. Include your name, email address, mailing address and phone number. You'll receive email confirmation from Shari as to the desired size, shape and dominant colors. We only accept credit card and PayPal payments through our website checkout system; no exceptions.
