About
My name is Lillian.
“Entrepreneurship started early for me.”
My first business venture began in early 2017 when I created what would become Artsy Aries Inc. Originally, I joined an online community of figurine painters, but I soon recognized an opportunity to turn my passion into a profitable endeavor. At just fourteen, I began selling hand-painted figurines online, gaining valuable experience in marketing, customer engagement, and e-commerce.
My Creative Evolution
As my shop grew, so did my skill set. I handled product promotion entirely through social media, building an engaged audience and learning how to effectively drive online sales. After several fulfilling years, I officially concluded the project in 2020 to pursue new creative directions.
