Jess Lindell has been painting watercolor pet portraits for over 20 years, earning multiple State Fair ribbons and a feature on Twin Cities Live. She was first introduced to the magic of watercolor by her aunt Meridith and quickly fell in love with the medium. Her mother’s work as a veterinary technician opened the door to pet portraiture, where she found her life’s work. Jess teaches artists how to harness her 333 method for watercolor by sharing the process, principles, and properties of the medium so her students can experience the joy of watercolor through their very first painting, without wasting precious time or supplies.
