Trio of local artists represent different mediums in Funny Dreams

Les Jolis Trésors, 3226 E. Broadway, is hosting an exhibit entitled Funny Dreams through March 30, and the gallery will host an artist reception on Saturday, March 1 from 5pm to 8pm.
Funny Dreams features the work of three local artists: Dawn Quinones and her intricate paintings on paper or canvas; M.C. Armstrong and her whimsical insects made of clay and found objects; and gallery owner Annie Clavel with her new aerial paintings.

“When you are a ceramist, what do you do with the detritus of past lives? Send it to the landfill? Let it collect dust? Use it in your art? In this case the use of found objects as insect legs and antennae lend themselves perfectly because in clay these skinny parts would break,” Armstrong said. “These sculptures combine my love of clay, my interest in insects and the creative challenge of reusing fascinating objects.”
