SPRD offers watercolor pet portraits class

Sisters Park & Recreation District will offer watercolor classes by Jodi Schneider McNamee.

Jodi is an accomplished, credentialed art teacher, photographer, author of several published books, and journalist, specializing in true animal stories as weekly featured articles, along with her pet column in The Nugget.

"I believe it was my early years spent in nature that inspired me into painting animals. Watercolor is my choice of medium, there is a softness with watercolor that I enjoy," she said.

Jodi Schneider McNamee is a member of the Sisters Arts Association, and spent over 15 years teaching art in Pomona Adult Education, and watercolor classes at Napa Valley College, Napa Valley.
