Viviane Valenta Shop

Building my very own business and product line

It was always my dream to create actual physical products that brighten and enrich people's lives. So inspired by my work with startup founders I used Alpaca's exit in 2021 to start my very own business.

I started by creating my own art which introduces a new clean interepretation of Kawaii which you can read more about in this interview with Sketch. This helped me grow an initial audience on my Instagram.

In this series I re-created famous works of arts as cats. I did extensive research on each and every artwork and its creator in order to be able to capture their style and message.

Once I knew people were interested in what I created I started my own Etsy and later Shopify shop where I sell unique motifs on pins, stickers, apparallel and much more!
