Work

Day considers her work a form of visual storytelling, where each painting acts as a page to a larger story about “risk and comfort.”[6] Her paintings primarily consist of paint and mixed media on canvas.

Aside from working with traditional painting materials, Day used her process to create the world's first augmented reality art for Facebook Camera in collaboration with Facebook's Applied Machine Learning group.[7]

Her work is included in the collection of the Fort Wayne Museum of Art.
