MEET THE FOUNDERS
iC Murals was born from a mother’s love and a vision that began in her daughter’s bedroom wall.
In 2015, co-founder Lesley Nicole set out to create something she couldn’t find large-scale art that reflected her daughter Lyric’s culture, beauty, history, and identity. What started as a personal act of creation soon evolved into a global creative community rooted in family, artistry, and a shared belief in possibility.
WHERE IT BEGAN
iC Murals began with a mother, a daughter, two artists, and a shared belief in the power of art and possibility.
While decorating her daughter Lyric’s room, Lesley Nicole searched for art, wallpaper, pillows, and home accessories that reflected their culture, their beauty, their history, and their stories.
She couldn’t find enough that truly felt like them.
So Lesley and Lyric did what artists do.
They began creating. Together.
WHY INNERCHILD?
As Lesley encouraged her daughter to dream without limits, she found herself rediscovering dreams of her own.
Later in life, she was reconnecting with the artist, creator, and dreamer who had always lived within her—the inner child who still believed something extraordinary was possible.
And in helping her daughter believe in her dreams, a mother gave herself permission to dream again.
“In helping her daughter believe in her dreams, a mother gave herself permission to dream again.”
WHEN LIFE CALLED
The Dream Didn’t Stop.
It Waited.
As Lyric grew, the vision entered a different season.
Lesley chose to step away from the day-to-day business to be fully present through some of the most important years of her daughter’s life from school through the beginning of her college journey.
It was a decision rooted in the same thing that started iC Murals in the first place:
Motherhood.
THE BUSINESS PAUSED.
THE DREAM DID NOT.
NOW, WE CONTINUE
And now, the story comes full circle.
On Lyric’s birthday, iC Murals begins its next chapter.
The daughter whose room helped inspire the dream is now a young woman and artist herself, returning alongside her mother to the company they began together.
Not simply as mother and daughter.
As artists.
As founders.
As storytellers.
A NEW CHAPTER. THE SAME HEART.
Elevating Artists.
Preserving Culture.
Creating Possibility.
They return older, wiser, and carrying an even greater vision to elevate emerging artists globally, preserve culture through visual art, uncover stories that deserve to be told, and transform ordinary spaces into places where people can see themselves, their history, and their possibilities reflected around them.
THE CLOSING
OUR STORIES DESERVE TO BE SEEN.
OUR ARTISTS DESERVE TO BE KNOWN.
OUR CHILDREN DESERVE TO SEE
WHERE THEY COME FROM.
AND DREAMS DO NOT HAVE AN EXPIRATION DATE.
THIS ISN’T WHERE
WE START OVER.
IT’S WHERE WE CONTINUE.
iC Murals
Give yourself permission to dream.
