Nyla Hayes is the artist behind Long Neckie Ladies, the first female-led PFP project (released the same day as World of Women). By any measure, 2021 was a massive year for the young artist. Hayes made history in 2021 as TIME Magazine’s 1st NFT Artist in Residence and has been featured on CNN, Yahoo Finance, Business Insider, Investing.com, Black Enterprise, AfroTech, and several other channels.
Nyla began her artistic journey at the young age of four years old, before turning to digital art around nine. She went on to leverage this natural artistic ability by creating an immensely successful generative NFT project. The long-neck style, which has come to be Nyla’s signature, originated nearly four years ago. “When I was younger, I liked the brontosaurus dinosaur. I like how pretty, long and elegant their necks were. I thought women were the same way, so I thought I’d put the two together,” said Nyla.
Recently, Nyla was announced as one of the artists on the VeeCon lineup, joining an unbelievably impressive roster of artists, musicians, and speakers set to grace what is set to be one of the largest events in NFT history.
