Renowned oil painter Jeffrey C. Legg returns to his roots with Alchemy of Light & Shadow, his first solo exhibition, debuting in his hometown of Joplin, Missouri at Spiva Center for the Arts. This compelling body of work explores the emotional and perceptual interplay between light and shadow, inviting viewers to reflect on the unseen forces that shape what — and how — we see.
Born in Joplin in 1959, Legg began painting at age 12 and went on to study at Atelier Lack and the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. Now a Master Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America, his award-winning work has been featured in major art publications and is represented in prestigious galleries across the country.
Jeffrey C. Legg: Alchemy of Light & Shadow marks a homecoming and a milestone — a deeply personal exhibition from one of America’s most luminous realist painters.
