BIOGRAPHY
Amos' paintings begin with a familiar scene that develops into a metaphor for change and transition. Born in Kapuskasing in 1953, Amos has seen most of Canada, lived many years in Toronto and currently has her studio in the Crowsnest Pass, Alberta. Amos graduated from the University of Waterloo and has taught at the Alberta College of Art. Amos has won two public art competitions and her work is in the US Library of Congress. The Alberta Foundation for the Arts, RBC Dominion Securities and Esso Resources are a few of the organizations that have added her work to their collections. Barbara Amos' paintings are in private collections in North America and Europe.
