Artist Showcase: Cynthia McCoy
Fraser Valley Library
Cynthia McCoy has been creating multi-media collage since the late 1990s. Most works take years to finish as she collects images, and works are given as gifts to friends and family from whom the pieces got their inspiration. Prints are given to the recipients, which allows the artist to keep the originals and add onto them (many are considered on-going or "live" works).
