LayMadeIt

LayMadeIt is an art and lifestyle brand founded by African American multidisciplinary artist Lay Simone. The brand operates primarily through its official website, thelaysimone.com, where it presents and sells original artworks, prints, and commissioned pieces. Its creative identity is built around raw emotion, body confidence, and healing, expressed through vibrant color and a multidisciplinary approach that spans visual art and lifestyle products. As a brand, LayMadeIt sits at the intersection of contemporary art and accessible lifestyle offerings. The official site describes the work as "Multidisciplinary art by Lay Simone. Raw emotion, body confidence, and healing meet vibrant color. Explore originals, prints, and commissions." This positions the brand as both a personal artistic practice and a commercial platform for selling art in multiple formats, from one-of-a-kind originals to reproducible prints and bespoke commissions. The brand is closely tied to the identity and vision of its founder, Lay Simone, whose background as an African American artist informs its themes and audience. While detailed corporate history, founding date, and headquarters are not publicly documented in the available evidence, LayMadeIt operates as a private, independent creative venture rather than a subsidiary of a larger corporation. Its market presence is currently centered on direct-to-consumer online sales through its own website. LayMadeIt's product range reflects a lifestyle brand orientation: beyond fine art originals, it offers prints that make the artwork more accessible, and commissions that allow collectors to engage directly with the artist. The brand's emphasis on body confidence and healing suggests a values-driven approach, appealing to audiences interested in art that carries personal and social meaning. As the brand develops, it may expand into additional lifestyle categories consistent with its stated identity.
