Shari Pedowitz's Say You Wanna Dance is a vibrant, magnetic celebration of flirtation and bold allure, pulsing across her canvas in sultry shades of pink and orange. It’s the electric moment before the music begins, the spark of a connection that ignites across a crowded room, and the tantalizing, unspoken invitation hanging in the air: “Do you want to dance with me?”
 
Her canvas is a playground where color dances freely. The dominant pink is the embodiment of confident femininity — a wink, a smile, a woman fully aware of her own irresistible power. It’s bold, unapologetically playful, and wrapped in an aura of magnetic charm. Against it, fiery splashes of orange flicker like a flirtatious touch, a whisper of spice, an irresistible "come closer." It’s the glow of a summer sunset, the intensity of a lingering gaze, the electric charge between two souls drawn irresistibly toward each other. 
 
The textures on her canvas are as alive as the flirtation itself — they pulse with anticipation, embodying the thrill of desire, and the sweet, breathless promise of a moment yet to come. Each brushstroke captures the rush of attraction, the delicate balance of tension and surrender.
 
Say You Wanna Dance is more than just about the dance; it’s about the electric connection that exists between two hearts, the playful back-and-forth of unspoken words, and the joy of giving in to the moment. It’s the confidence to make the first move, the irresistible allure of the unknown, and the intoxicating freedom that comes when you say “yes” to the dance — leaving you breathless, empowered, and ready to dive into whatever comes next.
