Interpretive NotesDailey’s work is based on his observations of human nature, and while his work is humorous, it is also satirical. “The most important thing that I try to give my work is a kind of magnetic quality,” he says. “It’s something that attracts or entertains or engages a person in a way that causes an interaction.”
