She grew up and lived in Brownburg, remaining deeply attached to her rural roots.<\/p>\n<p>A figurative painter, her work is distinguished by a constant search for light and serenity. Her compositions, often executed in oils, use halftones and transparencies to create an almost meditative atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>A true &#8220;visual archivist,&#8221; she travelled throughout Quebec (Charlevoix, the Laurentians, the Gasp\u00e9 Peninsula) to paint landscapes, churches, and ancestral homes. Her goal was to preserve Quebec&#8217;s heritage on canvas before it was erased by modernity.<\/p>\n<p>She worked from sketches made on location, but finished her works in her studio once she was &#8220;saturated with emotion.&#8221; For her, each painting had to capture the soul of a specific village or place, which she took great care to identify with precision.<\/p>\n<p>Her works, imbued with gentleness and a &#8220;chromatic sweetness,&#8221; are found in numerous private collections and galleries across Canada, notably at Balcon d&#8217;art.<\/p>\n<p>She is often described as a perfectionist who sought, through her landscapes, to achieve an &#8220;elusive mysticism&#8221; and a poetic silence characteristic of Quebec nature.<\/p>\n<p>She passed away on October 27, 2018, after a long illness.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pB4sJPEj6R4?si=TnDpJlUC6uiH4jka\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.multi-art.net\/multiartmedia\/index.htm#llk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-41877\" src=\"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/mam.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/mam.jpg 650w, https:\/\/balcondart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/mam-300x69.jpg 300w, https:\/\/balcondart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/mam-640x148.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.multiartgraphique.com\/lithos\/kirouac\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Available lithographs by Louise Lecor Kirouac<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Available Works Available Books About the artist PAINTING QUEBEC&#8217;S MEMORY Born into a family of &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":42744,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4,15,17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artists","category-gallery-artists","category-landscape","category-still-life"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6235","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6235"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6235\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":45371,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6235\/revisions\/45371"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42744"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6235"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6235"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6235"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
