Lucie Bause
Visual Artist-Educator
Therapeutic Art Practitioner
Lucie’s home base has been in the Bow Valley since 1989. Her artwork has been in many exhibitions throughout Alberta, Canada.
She has received commissions from the Town of Canmore and The Alberta Foundation for the Arts to create public art works, including paintings and two large-scale interactive sculptures.
She has received grants and awards and has participated in several artist residencies and public art installations.
Lucie’s artwork is inspired by Nature. Patterns, cycles and rhythms in Nature inspire and inform her work and life. She is passionate about exploring the connections between creativity, art-making and healing, and sharing these opportunities in community. She is an enthusiastic group facilitator who designs and delivers art-based workshops for public and private groups.
Lucie has studied English Literature at Trent University in Ontario, Spanish language and Literature at Universidad de Granada in Spain, and Fine Art at the Alberta College of Art and Design in Alberta.
She has been granted The Mentor Artist-Educator Certificate from Learning Through the Arts from The Royal Conservatory of Music. She has completed a Therapeutic Arts Practitioner Certificate Program through the Canadian International Institute of Art Therapy.
Her studies in Literature and Language and Art and Design come together to inform her work as a Visual Artist and Educator. Travel has been an important part of Lucie’s life. Her personal and professional projects have led her to travel and explore many places in the world, including the Andes, the Arctic and the Amazon.
