From fine art to webdesign and vice versa

I had this great idea, to live where I live, in to work what I love and like-to paint, and to provide my living by selling my works of art. How to manage that? I’ve decided to make my personal page, at the space provided by my dial-up (what was that?…) internet provider (3MB), and after few months, and sleepless nights, my first website was ready. I was ready to go internationally. I can remember, that night when I have uploaded my first website my girlfriend and I have opened bottle of wine and cheer…

That was the beginning of something or my presence online, before social websites.

Did I sell anything via that site? … NO-simple as that!

… but thanks to this site I have begun to make websites for my friends.

This first website was great beginning, for some new opportunities in life, great introduction in capabilities of internet…

I have made my second website www.topalski.com, and this site was, and still is… great project, totally hand made, without any base (sql), but still have more than 360 html pages, 314 artworks, and real links about 800! But… when I count links at the side-bar (member off,…) it has more than 20.000 links!!! First page at the moment has google page rank 4! For some art related searches it is listed at the top of major search engines!

I design websites, because it gives me freedom, like painting, freedom of artistic creation, freedom to play, freedom to explore,… also possibility to earn some $.

Currently I’m working on this blog, main conte website (www.conteart.com), several other blogs, as well as some websites for my friends.

Oh yeah, not to forget, when I make some website for my friends, after that, they share with me they money friends

I you wish, we could share and be friends!
