I never planned to start an art supply store.
As a civil engineer, my world used to be filled with blueprints and site plans — until I became a full-time mom and had to put my career on pause. At first, the shift was overwhelming. But then, I picked up a brush.
Creating art became my therapy, my outlet, and eventually, my inspiration. I started curating and designing art kits — not just pretty ones, but practical, travel-friendly tools that artists like me could actually use.
Lotendo was born from this love — for art, for expression, and for all the beautiful messiness in between.
I’m learning everything from marketing to packing orders with love, and every milestone reminds me that this journey is worth it.
Thank you for supporting Lotendo — you're not just buying art supplies; you're supporting a dream built from scratch, with heart.
