exhibition
November 5 November 28, 2010

Cynthia Groya’s new Acrylic Abstractions and Large Mixed Media Oil Paintings of Ancient Greek and Contemporary New York Calligraphic Currents. Groya, who exhibits widely and taught for years in Yardley, devised a method of applying pigment to canvas that does not rely on brushes. Instead, she uses small rectangles of matte board to produce painterly effects. She calls this pulling paint, hence the title of her show.
