Shari Pedowitz’s Animal is a raw, visceral surge of untamed energy. The dominant red pulses like a heartbeat — fierce, passionate, alive. It’s the fire in your belly, the part of you that refuses to be tamed.
 
Shari's twisting, writhing brushstrokes hint at something deeper, wilder — glimpses of your own uninhibited self. They stir memories of moments when you’ve broken free from expectation, surrendered to instinct, and embraced your true nature. There’s a bold defiance in Animal, a challenge to push past comfort, to be fearless, to awaken the part of you that dares.
 
Playful sparks of pink and orange flicker like mischief, reminding you that wildness isn’t just power — it’s joy. It’s movement, laughter, the thrill of letting go, of dancing to your own drum without apology.
 
Animal is a celebration of raw authenticity, an ode to the fearless spirit within. It urges you to shed inhibitions, embrace your essence, and revel in the freedom of simply being.
