Meet the "Creative Mind" behind CreativeMindsA2Z!

My name is Lakshmi Venkataramu, an engineer by profession, an artist by birth and creator by passion! Coming from a family full of enthusiastic artists and musicians, developing an interest towards art and music came naturally to me. I spent most of my childhood watching my mom paint and dad build wood structures. Following the usual path for an Indian kid, I studied Engineering and then got a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering in USA and started working for a reputed semiconductor company.

After my daughter Saanvi was born, I realized how exciting it is to have a baby girl and spent most of my time in making hair accessories. Then came my discovery of sewing machine! Man Oh Man, did I mention fabric? I went on a sewing spree and started stitching dresses for my little one. This is when I realized that arts, crafts and music is where my heart is! So I quit my job and spent time in exploring all kinds of arts and crafts  for  the next few years. Today, here I am with my own online store!

So you must be wondering why the name CreativeMindsA2Z right? Well, “Creative Minds” is what I came up with and "A2Z" is what my hubby wanted to add. According to him I am a crazy artist who wants to try anything and everything I lay eyes on! This is truly reflected by the wide variety of items in my shop.

I specialize in   hand crafted   decorated candles and votives, Kolam Art, Wedding and Home Décor products, Henna Art pieces, traditional Indian manai designs, painted glass work, commissioned paintings across and lot more products that are influenced by a wide range of traditional and modern Indian art forms.

Each and every item is hand crafted with lots of passion and creativity. I hope you like them and enjoy browsing through my hand crafted products.
