About the Instructor | Courtney Cerruti

Courtney is the author of Playing with Image Transfers, published by Quarry Books. Maker extraordinaire, Courtney sees books as objects to be read and re-purposed, candy wrappers as paper flower petals, toilet paper tubes as a menagerie of animals. She sees the potential in the discarded, history in the mundane and art in the everyday. She saves everything, makes anything and teaches from a place of passion and authenticity. Courtney believes everyone is creative and she’d rather spend an evening drinking tea and painting than doing anything else (except maybe scavenging treasures abroad). You can see Courtney's work on her website, or follow her on Instagram @ccerruti
