Artography with Layla: Where Appalachian Roots Meet Big City Pop Magic

West Virginia may be known for its rolling mountains and deep country traditions, but Layla is rewriting the script. Born and raised in the heart of the Appalachian region, she carries its spirit within her—but her artistic vision is anything but rustic. Think neon dreams, high-fashion meets art, and a Lisa Frank-inspired explosion of vibrant, unapologetic girliness.

Layla’s work is a fusion of color and couture. With a passion for both fashion and fine art, she effortlessly blends the two, crafting pieces that feel like they’ve stepped right out of a downtown boutique in New York or a Hollywood pop-art exhibit. Whether she’s designing wearable art, painting electrifying canvases, or curating dazzling collections of accessories, her creations are drenched in bold hues, shimmer, and an undeniable energy that screams city chic.

But beneath the layers of glamour, there’s an unmistakable thread connecting her back home—an independent spirit, a fierce dedication to her craft, and the ability to turn everyday objects into something extraordinary. While her work carries a metropolitan essence, it never forgets its roots, mirroring Layla’s own journey of finding balance between where she came from and where she’s going.

Layla’s artistic philosophy? Art should be fun, fearless, and fierce. It should make people feel something—whether it’s nostalgia, confidence, or pure joy. Like the Lisa Frank notebooks that defined a generation, her designs are immersive worlds of glittering creativity.

West Virginia may have nurtured her soul, but the world is about to know her name. Keep an eye out for Artography with Layla —because her brand of artistic magic is only just beginning.
