Contemporary visual artist and educator - Lucie Bause

Lucie has studied 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.

Lucie’s home base has been in the Bow Valley since 1989. Over the years, she has been involved in numerous group and solo art exhibitions in Canmore, Banff, Calgary and Edmonton. She has received commissions by the Town of Canmore and The Albertan Foundation for the Arts to create several public art works, including paintings, a road mural and two large-scale interactive sculptures.

Lucie’s artwork is inspired by Nature. Patterns and cycles and rhythms in Nature on both micro and macro levels inspire and inform her work and life.

She is also interested in exploring media and enjoys working in painting, printmaking, photography and mixed media. She is interested sharing the exciting process of creativity by collaborating and by designing and delivering creative art workshops for all ages.
