Bettina Khoury Badr graduated from the Lebanese University with a diplôme d'études supérieures in fine arts in 2001 and a master’s degree in Fine Arts in 2012. The intervening years were spent in teaching and developing her artistic vision. During this time, she also attended several workshops in Lebanon and abroad. In 1994, she completed several fine arts courses at Tulsa Junior College in Oklahoma in the United States of America. Her work draws inspiration from Lebanon, her place of birth, and the events that are part of the recent fragmented past.
