The Beauty in the Simplicity of Everyday Life

The Beauty in the Simplicity of Everyday Life

Daily Chronicles focuses in on the beauty and simplicity of everyday life and features the work of Andrew DeCaen, Morgan Ford Willingham, Teddi Parker, and Whitney Sage.

The included artwork by these four artists guides the visitor through a seemingly mundane narrative, in a way that stirs intrigue. Whether that is through color, or scale, or media, each of the four artists transforms an ordinary situation into a thought-provoking opportunity to draw attention to and appreciate one’s surroundings.
