The Art Of Observation With Sketch Artist Lay Simone

Sketch artist Lay Simone has built a name around her ability to turn simple lines into feeling. Her sketches carry emotion that reaches beyond the page. With each stroke she captures life as it moves, raw and unfiltered, giving her work a sense of truth that words cannot match.

For Lay Simone, sketching is not just a step in the process. It is a form of meditation. She approaches every page with intention, letting her hand follow instinct more than plan. Through this she finds rhythm, peace, and clarity. She often says that sketching is how she learns to see rather than how she learns to draw.

Her sketches balance imagination and structure. Some explore surreal ideas while others study human emotion and expression. Every line has purpose. Every shadow carries meaning. Her work shows that even in simplicity there can be power, depth, and beauty.

Based in Pittsburgh, Lay Simone continues to shape her craft and influence through her unique vision. Her art reminds people that creativity does not begin with color or canvas. It begins with awareness.

Lay Simone draws emotion and gives it shape.
