Hello, I’m Catherine Lucas.
It is my mission to help aspiring artist align in all areas of their lives so that they can create with integrity, consistency, and achieve their highest artistic vision.
I’m passionate about the arts and feel compelled to share my knowledge, experience, and expertise to help artists step into their highest creative potential. Art elevates consciousness and I firmly believe that when everyone functions from their highest creative state, the world becomes a more harmonious place.
Coming into my own as a Holistic Art Coach has encompassed my passion for painting, teaching, and holistic health. As professional fine artist and art instructor, I have guided many students to align with their own unique vision developing the skills and habits necessary to create strong, integrated works of art. There is no age limit to mastering a craft. Some of my students started making art in their 70’s and are now award winners in national juried art shows.
I also pursued my passion for holistic health and wellness and received my health coaching certificate From The Holistic Health Coach Institute. Combining my transformational coaching skills with teaching art, together we go beyond technique to help you truly hone your craft by aligning all areas of your life to achieve authentic self-expression and bring your art into your own.
As we work together we will look at how all aspects of your life affect your creative flow and artwork as a whole. It is my greatest desire to inspire artists to become the best version of themselves and to master their passion.
“Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person” ~ Albert Einstein
My signature program, Beyond Technique, is a one-on-one program for serious artists who wish to achieve their full artistic potential, and create with integrity, consistency, and authenticity.
It’s a program in a league of its own. I teach you how to connect to your own unique vision, overcome procrastination, identify skills that need to be developed, summon creativity on demand, and transform limiting beliefs and fears, into confidence, trust, inspiration, and productivity.
I know what it takes:
- In addition to my formal education in art (BFA & MFA) I’ve studied and under many contemporary master artists to hone my skills unique artistic expression.
- I’ve taught classes, workshops, and privately mentored beginning through advanced art students successfully bringing them to the next level.
- Beyond art technique, I Mentored with Health, Life, and Spiritual Coaches learning the necessary tools to make success inevitable through Mindset, Habit Change, and Self Development.
Beyond my credentials, I know the faith it takes to step into the unknown and trust in the process of transformation. The true magic of transformation requires a compassionate, non-judgmental space ~what I like to call “Sacred Space”.
The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. I bring my entire presence to you, walk along with you without judgment, sharing in your journey completely willing to end up wherever you need to go.
I know what it takes to create this Sacred Space, offering necessary support and steadfast guidance. I make you feel safe to make mistakes, and hold your highest vision for you when you struggle to do so.
It’s truly my passion to help you connect to your own creative powers, step into your full artistic potential, and bring your artwork to the next level.
This program is for you if you want to:
- Become crystal clear about your direction and hone your unique vision.
- Overcome creative blocks and procrastination to see works through to completion….consistently!
- Create works that inspire you and light you up!
- Feel confident in the unknown and have trust in the process so that you no longer fear the blank canvas.
- Know what needs to be developed/nourished to move forward with your vision.

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING
“It was such a privilege and an honor to work under Catherine’s guidance. I had no idea what the experience would be like, and have come out of it a completely changed person. I feel more connected to myself, and I am moving away from the paradigm of food as punishment or reward. Through her caring and effective guidance, Catherine helped me discover new ways of living and nourishing myself; for the first time in my life, I feel that I’m taking my real beliefs into account. Catherine is perhaps the best listener I have ever met, and this made me feel so much more comfortable through out the whole process. Her wisdom is felt through her silence as well as through her insightful words. She is in my opinion, the most qualified individual I have ever met to lead someone through nutritional healing and counseling. To be one of her clients is something incredibly special and rewarding.”

“My work with Catherine brought quite a few insights about myself and my abilities that I hadn’t considered previously. She has a gentle and deliberate manner that was very helpful in understanding all the aspects of the work we did. Her guidance and expertise during our session gave me new confidence to go in a direction that I had always wanted to, but didn’t quite have the guts to follow through on at the time. I’m now embracing that path fully, thanks to working with her!”

“Calmer. More grounded. Much better equipped to handle life’s stressors. These are the results after working with Catherine. She is knowledgeable, warm, intuitive, compassionate, generous, and a great coach. Catherine clearly enjoys her coaching and that comes across when you are working with her. She asks deceptively simple questions that really hone in on issues, and she is skilled at drawing me out deeper than I expect. I recommend her as a coach without reservation.
