-Hey Courtney! Introduce yourself... what do you make/create/do?

Courtney. Miss Guerin if you’re nasty. Fingernails are Pretty is my biz. I am a nail artist/by trade, but I switched to only making hand-painted, reusable press-on nail kits in order to assure I never have to touch anyone ever again.

-What is the inspiration behind your work?

Any wacky idea that bounces around my brain will come to life via nails - no questions asked.

-What is one thing that is different about the work that you create, compared to others in your field?

Everything I make is handmade from scratch with a wild amount of care.

-What is a dream project/opportunity that you hope to get to do one day?

I make nails for drag performers and my fav of all time is Katya. So Katya if you’re listening, get on the horn and give me a ring, girl.

-Take this opportunity to tell us about another local artist/creator that you love... Who is putting out cool shit that keeps you inspired and excited?

Oh easy. Nonsense Studio. Everything they put out - I’m a fan.
