WORK BY COBDEN, ILL., ARTISTS LEE SPALT AT GALLERY 100

An exhibit titled "CONtrastinG ELEmenTs" by Lee Spalt will open Sunday at Gallery 100.

The exhibit will consist of works in pen-and-ink, watercolor, acrylic and oils, and includes landscapes, figures and abstract designs.

His work has been exhibited in juried, group and solo shows from Florida to Arizona.

Spalt, who has a master of fine arts degree and formerly taught art, chemistry and science and coached football and basketball, lives in Cobden, Ill. He also had a medical practice for more than 20 years before retiring.

"Since I retired form work in clinical medicine, I can and do easily spend 14-hour days in the studio," he says.

A reception will be held at the gallery from 2-4 p.m. Sunday.
