Becoming Pixelfields Shop
My journey, I guess, started in 1997 while studying marketing management at the time the internet was booming! I gathered knowledge of Adobe and Corell Draw, and further down I started my own bureau where I did graphic design and web-development. Then came the early 2000´s and the downfall.
Long story short; I spent the next 20 somewhat years for the rebound. In between I bought myself a pro camera and fiddled with photography as a hobby while still playing around in Photoshop and Lightroom.
After that I have always considered my photos "worthy" of some presentation, so I made a half-hearted attempt selling the best ones on 500px.com/owutne
Come 2023 and during a looooong vacation in Peru, I succumbed to the yearning for once again cultivate my creative side as a day-to-day occupation. Still thinking of my photos worthiness, and given way to much spare-time I binged on Youtube stumbling upon POD videos. There were quite a few good ones whom I found trustworthy and I was intrigued to try this business model for myself. Then back from my vacation almost immediately my Imac collapsed, and I had to wait some time, (also due to wrong shipment) to get my tailored Macbook pro (I know, better suited to work on the go, right?). So I missed out on my first years most important seasons sales wise.
Fall 23, then winter I´ve been creating and posting, still learning, and tweaking.
So finally it happened. After nearly a year on this platform. I got my sale week 10, 2024 :-) The fun thing is that the motif on the hoodie my first client bought was an image taken in Peru while I was planning for my Etsy storefront. Amazing. Coincidence, or synchronisation? Either way, I am now a passionate creator of apparels and useful stuff - as I promote in the banner.
I invite you to browse around in my listings, and if you don´t find what you´re looking for, please send me a message. I do bespoke custom designs for one-offs upon request.
Thank you for visiting, and please share if you would be so kind.
