Barbara Weaver-Bosson's is well known nationally for her panoramic paintings of Victoria B.C's. seaside neighbourhoods and harbour views. After graduation from The Alberta College of Art’s four year Fine Art Painting program, Barbara and her partner, fellow ACA grad, Victor Bosson, moved from Calgary, Alberta to Victoria B.C.
In the mid 1970’s Barbara began exhibiting
her impressionistic west coast landscape paintings and by 1984
Weaver-Bosson's painting style evolved towards realism. With her deep interest
in documenting Victoria residential and urban architecture and to further
her artistic skills, Barbara became a member of The Island
Illustrators Society in 1986 and enrolled in Camosun College's Architectural
Drawing and Perspective Courses in 1986 and 1988.
In Weaver-Bosson's 1986 show at the Art
Gallery of Greater Victoria's Massey Gallery, her colourful detailed painting style and refreshing urban
vision drew much attention. In 1989, Barbara
and Victor Bosson were honoured with their first international exhibition
in Victoria's Sister City of Morioka, Japan. Over the
years Barbara's Neighbourhood paintings have garnered numerous awards in various juried exhibitions on Canada’s west
coast.
To meet the public demand for her architectural
paintings, Weaver-Bosson, in 1993, published the first of many limited edition
prints of her Neighbourhood Series paintings.
Barbara Weaver-Bosson's paintings are
in corporate, public, and private collections in Canada, Japan, USA,
UK, Germany, Australia and Iceland.
